It isn't my fault
That I love someone.
Really.
I just want to
Tweak the circumstances…
(but just a little bit).
So?
Don't I get a little love, too?
So maybe it's fake.
It might not be wholly real.
But you know,
I don't care…
Not anymore.
I just want my dream come true,
My fantasy,
Perfect,
Wonderful
Love.
That's all.
I want my
Hopes,
Wishes,
And Dreams
To come true,
Just like anyone does.
So,
Changing the situation—
But only just a bit
Isn't a crime
At all,
Is it?
And when you see
Her,
You don't look at her
That way,
Like she's
Done something wrong.
But you know,
We're just the same,
The potioneer
And the trickster.
We're both
In love
(with you).
And we're both
Tweaking the conditions
Ever so slightly.
So why is she so different?
She's no better,
Not at all.
The dreamers dream,
But only one is let down.
And this time,
It must be me.
AN: When you're looking forward to the prompt 'Amortentia' all month, only to realize Romilda Vane is your character, you find yourself with a very limited are to cover. I was hoping for something slightly more original, like Dean for 'Amortentia.' It would end up a lot better, I'm guessing. Anyway. Thank you to my beta-reader wisegirlweasley, and to you for reading.
