Damn it, I'm 15 minutes late!
For Fred & George's birthday - spoilers for DH, but frankly, if you haven't read it yet you're not a real fan.
Disclaimer: Do you think I would have killed people off like flies in book 7?
I'm a peaceful person.
Now read and review before I set you on fire!
A Birthday Alone
I don't know why I'm here. Not today. I don't really have a reason. I just didn't want to be alone.
They all think a part of me died that night.
They're right. I'm no longer the man I used to be.
I'm half of who I once was.
They say my soul is torn, my mind's gone dancing, that I'm missing a piece of my heart.
I admit, my soul is torn, but only because of the fight. Not because of you.
My mind did go dancing, but it's come back now, and I'm going to make you proud.
My heart's not broken – only cracked. It'll heal, I suppose.
I don't know why I'm telling you all this. It's not like you can hear me, or you would have answered my calls when I cried for you every night, come and told me my prayers were not in vain, helped me, been a friend. Been a brother.
Whenever I feel lonely I look in the mirror. You used to tell me, "I'll always be with you. Always. We're twins, one soul in two different bodies, one love in two different hearts. Two hearts that beat in time."
Our hearts no longer beat in time.
Yours no longer beats at all.
Happy birthday, Fred.
