Quicksilver Stars


Luna Lovegood Scamander/Roger Davies Poetry for the 2012 Mew & Mor Weird Pairing Competition

Summary: /and she smiles like she has seen all there is and still chooses to be here where imaginary creatures dwell beside the ones who do not believe/


Stars

Falling stars

Her eyes were like falling stars

Falling

Falling

Stars

Unlike the girl with
eyes of almond

and her hair of night

This one was bright

A star

A star falling

in the night

Murmurs of lunacy

Of crazed cries

and imagined creatures

Could not dissuade
my heart

her eyes of mercury

and hair like fairy bought

tell stories of her kind
and gentle heart

unlike the veela

who once ensnared me for a dance

stars

falling stars

her eyes like falling stars

mercury and silver

her eyes like falling stars

and if but I should have the chance

I shall take her as wife

and let her continue with her stories

of animals illusory in thought

younger than I
she is to be

but older in her soul
than I could dream to be

I carry her picture with me

her robes blue and bronze

matching mine

and she smiles

like she has seen all there is

and still chooses to be here

where imaginary creatures dwell

beside the ones who do not believe

and as the famous spear
I have pierced the heart
of the girl of the moon
with quicksilver stars in her eyes
