Note to Disclaimer: I do not own Snape, or any of the Harry Potter
characters, so there :p
A/N: Please R+R. This is a poem about Snape and a character I have made up,
so just to tell you it ISN'T Lilly!! I will probably write a fic based on
this piece, if I get reviewed that is ;) I hope you like this piece.

************************************

The silence that lingers proves that I am alone,
I find you in my fears, and in my fascination,
Moonlight that washes over my soul,
I sense you in dark waters, and it drowns me.

The emptiness that I have felt,
A single line of footsteps imprinted in the snow,
Dark veils torn by icy wind,
Cold black eyes resembling emptiness, never to let the tears show.

Drowning, alone, in complete darkness,
Endless pools of liquid metal, piercing, shattering my very soul,
Again, I find you bound to me, your pureness healing my wounds,
Light washing over the darkness, becoming one, at peace.

All alone, the hatred strikes me,
Tears me, throws me to the ground,
Here I am crying, pleading for forgiveness,
But I'm alone, I won't be found.

A slender hand, belonging to a fallen angel, firmly grasped in mine,
Tears shed by the light for the darkness, softly fall onto the ground,
The glowing warmth of the candlelight, swaying in an endless dance,
The moon crossing the path of the sun.

An image that might be real, nothing but an intoxicating illusion,
Dreaming of another sharing your pain,
Again, I sense you in peril, tears shed by the darkness for the light,
Binding my soul away from yours, for the pureness might be slain.

The light and the dark, embraced as one,
Tears shed for both sides,
Drowning together, forever bound,
The darkness heals, to never look back.
