A/N I think this applies metaphorically to a lot of people, but literally to Remus and Sirius, hence the placement.





We were two animals in the night, you and I;

Joyous, faithful, wild.

The night went quickly with you by my side -

Too quickly,

For now you are gone

And I howl my anguish to the moon.

I am a man now, and know you are lost

For you were not who you appeared to be -

But in the night,

The animal knows only that it is alone;

And it searches,

Unceasing.
