I Wish
Sirius was dead.
I killed him.
As assuredly as Cedric
Whose eyes I watched grow dim.
~~~~~~~~~~
I have never cast the killing curse
Or used a knife against a friend
But I wash and wash and wash
Only to see my blood stained hand.
~~~~~~~~~~
My Parents
They did die for me
How many others did so too?
Oh how the blinded do now see.
~~~~~~~~~~
I am the chosen one
Marked by the Enemy
And still some think
That the Enemy is me.
~~~~~~~~~~
All I ever wished
And hoped
Have vanished
Like so much forgotten smoke.
~~~~~~~~~~
All I wish now
Is not to survive
But while my friends do
I wish to die.
