This is just a poem I wrote about Harry having a brief but powerful encounter with his father one dark night…. PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!!!!!
What Lies Beyond the Next Bend….
When the moon is full
When the stars shine bright
I search myself
In the silvery light
I walk alone
This deserted street
The only sounds
The slap of my feet
Not knowing where I'm going
Not caring where I'll end
Just looking straight forward
To what lies beyond the next bend
While others dream the night away
While children toss and turn
I keep walking to the distance
Anything to escape this slow burn
To escape the torture
To escape the pain
To escape my uncle's fists
Into a land of sun and rain
I keep walking to the distance,
My wand held in my hand
A smile playing on my lips
My wish is my command
A new spring in my step,
A new song in my heart
I keep walking to the distance
This is the night we part
I hear a voice
It calls my name
Filled with pain and rage and hate
It nears ever closer from hence it came
I turn to flee and start to run
I feel a hand upon my arm
It grips with strength
Yet I know it brings no harm
The hand pulls me back
Into my father's waiting embrace
I blink in shock, throw back my head
As tears run down my pale face
He hugs me tight
He soothes my sobs
He whispers to keep going,
Then vanishes in a burst of fog
Again I walk alone
This deserted street
The only sounds
The slap of my feet
Not knowing where I'm going
Not caring where I'll end
Just looking straight forward
To what lies beyond the next bend….
