Trapped

In his arms I feel safe
I forget about the tears
I forget about the pain.
My broken heart isn't important.
In his arms, the past doesn't matter.

To soon it's over, all over.
Everything comes back, haunting.
I feel myself falling for him.
Fear courses through me
Sharp stinging tears explode
Down, streaming my face

2am, I'm trapped, a prisoner.
Forced to relive, remember, regret.
I can't help but hope, hope for hope.
Hope for an end, complete and confirmed.
Any escape I long for is denied.
Sappy love songs play in my ears
I hold my shaking breath.
Can't wake anyone, can't let them see.

His open arms welcome me.
Welcome me back, like nothings changed.
But change did come, and he lurks.
He prays on my dreams reminding.
Never letting me forget.
Always whispering my fault, all my fault.

I look back now and see that it was.
It had to happen, I had to grow.
I had to get shaken from my delusions.
Had to get swept off my feet
To fall flat on my face.
I may never understand freedom.
Trapped here, wandering in a circle.
It's a mean vicious cycle.
Love, pain, remorse, longing, hate, love.

He never leaves, his voice, his smell.
He haunts me, yet he doesn't exist.
There are no traces of him left
I made sure of it.
Yet everywhere I look he's there.
I'm trapped. Repetitive. Frazzled.
I'm alone, left to clean.
Pick up the pieces, put on mask.
And hope no one sees the cracks.

I'm dying to talk, to release it all.
But my lips are locked,
And the key is gone.
I'll go on. I pretend I'm fine.
That this bleeding heart of mine
Is healed, alright.
It's happened before.
I can manage here.
What else am I supposed to do
But to move on, to go forward.
I am, in fact, stuck here.
You have a lot of time to think.
When in your own mind you happen to be
Trapped.


A/N

Just a little poem that Hermione wrote about Draco. Might write a one shot story prequaling this. Maybe.

Review! Also, read my other stories! That would make my day!
