Hey!
This story is supposed to be based on book 7, I started writing it before it came out.
Please R&R! It's only my second story and it's my first ever on Harry Potter.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. However, I do own the poem which this story is based on. COPY CATS WILL BE PUNISHED!!!!
Dedication: A special thankyou to Phoenix Fanatic who was my beta for this story and has helped me through the whole nine months I have been working on it. Thanks Pho!
Anyways, again, please R&R. CONSTRUCTIVE critism is always appreciated. Thanks.
And on with the story...
Wake Up
Harry Potter walked into the empty dormitory and threw himself on top of his four poster bed
You're feeling cold and heavy
The day's events passed through his mind in a blur
Your palms are sweaty
He couldn't understand, it had all happened so fast
Your dreams are falling
He had failed her, he had failed himself.
The darkness is calling
Ginny, his precious Ginny was gone
It's all around you
And it was all his fault.
You feel the pressure
He felt as if the world was closing in on him
Of all your life, once whole and together
But it felt as though his heart had been ripped into pieces
Is now apart
How could he have been so stupid? That split second could have saved her life!
Now we're back at the start
He was feeling cold and heavy
Your thoughts are deep
He had caused so much pain, made so many mistakes
The hills are steep
And he had suffered the consequences
You went down the wrong path
If only he could turn back time…
And you can't go back
But that was impossible
Your soul is dying
The guilt of Ginny's death weighed down on his shoulders like a ton of bricks
Your heart is crying
Knowing he would never again see her smile, hear her laugh, feel her soft lips on his
You look into the mirror
Thanks to him, no one ever would
But you can't see the greatness that's hiding
He wanted to run
Run away from his life and then keep on running
Wake up
But what good would that do?
Get out of that nightmare
No good at all
Wake up
Shouldn't he try to fix the damage he caused, instead of leave it to others to pick up the pieces?
See the light, don't cower to fear
He was scared
What if someone else got hurt? Like Ron or Hermione?
You know you've been keeping it all inside
All he could see ahead was the dark, twisted path leading up to Voldemort
Don't just run away and hide
He had to do this
It's time to get up
For Ginny!
Come on
He opened his eyes
Wake Up!
Harry Potter stood up and walked out of the room with fresh determination and strength. He knew what he was fighting for. It was all up to him.
In the end, he always knew it would come to this.
