Baby Say Goodnight

by Beckett Simpleton

A poem switching non alternatly between Lily and Baby Harry. Another 'the murder scene' oneshot. Thanks to Duck With No Name for help on the last line. I don't own Harry Potter. I know because last time I checked my purse, there was nothing in it.

Wow another Harry P fic! I'm not the best at poetry, but I figured I'd give it a go. What has gotton into me!

You lot there, right there! You people who spend too much time in HP fandom, you'd better click the button!

A story, please! Just one, for me?

A show of lights, red blue and green,

A funny face, one last goodnight,

And I will sleep in your love's light.

Another moment, please, please Mum?

Another hour out in the sun.

Another game, another tale,

My love for you will never fail.

Okay, baby, say good night,

I'll see you in the morning light.

Right now it looks so far away,

Tomorrow's just a dream away.

I'll never leave you, never go,

My love for just grows and grows.

You don't yet know, it keeps you safe,

Your life depends on our friend's faith.

A broken trust has us in here,

Trapped. Stood frozen, bathed in fear.

I love you baby, really, I do.

But what's to be done is done for you.

When I leave you, please don't cry,

And live, for me, a happy life.

Make the world a better place,

Make it one without his face.

The world seems dreadful in the night,

The colours fade and so does life.

But remember, baby, what I said,

My love lives on though I am dead.

I know it seems like I have lied,

For how can I love you now I've died?

But trust in me, I know your heart,

For this, my son, is just the start.
