I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
When I woke up, I knew something was wrong. I felt someone watching me, and a dark figure emerged from the shadows. It was none other than my father, Lucius. He found out about last night, and I knew he wasn't pleased. He threatened not only myself, but also Hermione, and I knew what I had to do.
I gave my father one last glare before he disappeared into the fireplace. I acted quickly, knowing my father he wasn't a patient person. I knew that I couldn't leave an explanation or she would come looking for me. The only thing I left was a note with two simple words on it. I wanted to let her know I was sorry.
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
It hurt; I was leaving the one person I loved. She was what kept my life together. She made me open my eyes and change my ways. She gave me so much and this is what I'm giving her in return.
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
It's been two years since I left my Hermione. When I think it's safe, I watch her from afar. She looks so happy when she's with her friends and I wish I could be there with her. I don't know how long I could live knowing that I've hurt her, because I know she's hurting. When she goes home, I just watch her from the window and her cheery smile slips from her face and she suddenly looks tired and it's painful to think that it's my fault. But it is.
That's why I need you to hear
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You
She was my reason to live and I know she risked everything to be with me. So I take a risk, a small one, and visit her apartment every night and sit by her bed. I just watch her, knowing there's nothing else I can do.
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
"I love you," I whisper to her, and before she opens her eyes, I leave.
