Give, No Take
A HariPo freeverse piece

Note: The Harry Potter characters belong to J.K. Rowling, not to me. My first Bellamort… O.o Read, review, and enjoy!

"So make up your mind for me
Walk the line for me
If you want my love
If you want my love"
—Depeche Mode, "Judas"
sSsSsSsSsSs
My most
prized
follower
She always assured that
she would do anything she could
for m e
(and Bellatrix doesn't disappoint)
She s a y s
that she'll…
Curse for me
hunt for me
t.o.r.t.u.r.e for me
murder for me
&& it'll all be
in my name
What more could a
Dark Lord
ask for?
sSsSsSsSsSs
She was young
very young, in the beginning
But she was the kind of deranged I
sought
All the others couldn't compare
Don't even ask about
Lucius
Rodolphus
Rabastan
(certainly not Pettigrew)
Rabastan was a mindless follower of his brother's
Rodolphus thought himself my right-hand man…
…when that's actually Lucius, and even
he
can't possibly compare to Bellatrix
No, a fresh, new, young mind
will do the
m o s t
d-a-m-a-g-e
sSsSsSsSsSs
She had no problem with the other tasks
but even Bella
had a hard time with my
"specialty"
So when she finally killed,
I knew it was time
I would truly take her under my wing
&& keep her by my side
because she was the only one
with the gall
to mindlessly
(detachedly)
d.i.s.p.o.s.e
of those who oppose me
(and it's not as though I could take the chance she might turn)
sSsSsSsSsSs
She knew all the time
What she was doing
Which makes it all the
b/e/t/t/e/r
So I know I'll never be alone
(though I don't really give a damn)
And I know that my reign will have
LEFT
its mark
because they won't forget me
&& she won't be forgotten either
(and why should I have to repay that?)

Whoa… Eerie… O.o… But veeery Voldy, I think. This is really only kind of romance, though…as he's rather incapable of loving. But not too bad here, I think.
Thanks for reading, and please review!

Thanks to Morghen for beta'ing!
2016 note: In the 6 yrs since this little FV, honestly I realize writing Voldy or Bella isn't my fav thing to do, though I do like writing Dark charries… But, if I had to choose, I'd write Voldy over Bella. Something never really clicked for me about Bella. I wonder why. :O
