IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE SEVENTH HARRY POTTER, DO NOT READ THIS!

Harry's Poem (post-war)

Hedwig, Dumbledore, and Sirius.

It's all so mysterious.

I wish I had one more chance to see

My friend, Cedric Diggory.

But no matter how much I plea,

They will never come back to me.

I barely knew my mum and dad,

But that's not all that makes me sad.

Dobby, Moody, and Fred

They were all so mislead

And now they are dead

Why couldn't it have been me instead?

Voldemort wanted me,

Not Snape, Remus, or Creevy.

As I look around

Down towards the ground,

I cannot help but break down.

I see pale unmoving faces

and my heart races,

people don't understand that I don't want their embraces.

I glance to see the only place where I belonged-

Destroyed and my time was suddenly prolonged.

Most of the stone

Has been blown

Leaving some statues standing alone

Like a clone…

One of my own.

Before I begin the cry

I see my friends who didn't die.

At least they didn't have to say goodbye.

Hermione and Ron

Cheer me on

As we mourn on Hogwart's lawn.

For a moment I forget about the deaths

And all the final breaths

I realize how much I still have to live for

And how much is still in store.

I recall the love before,

Before this cold sickening war

And my heart begins to restore.

Pushing sad feelings aside,

I take note in my pride

and the people who had not died.

Like my friends- my guide.

Without their support

I could've never killed Voldemort.

And stopped the war short.

Suddenly I am no longer blind

My love, no longer confined.

I reach out to rejoice and love

The ones with me and the ones above.
