Author's Notes: This poem is dedicated to my favorite character in Harry Potter, Sirius Black. I wrote it because I feel kind of torn up inside whenever I think of him. Yes, I am madly in love with him, but now that he is gone, I feel sad and lonely. I feel like I need to do something to keep his memory alive, and this poem is it.

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. All characters are the property of J.K. Rowling.

Why Did You Go?

By Sarah

12/13/07

I see you fall through the Veil.

Tears fall from my eyes as I begin to wail.

There is only one thing I want to know.

Sirius, why did you go?

Bellatrix has sent you away.

Now is no longer our time to play.

You were everything I could ever hope to be.

Silly, quirky, just like me.

Eyes of gray will never again meet my gaze,

I wish Bellatrix would be set ablaze!

I cannot bear to be apart.

Your death has broken my heart.

But though you will never come back,

I will not crack.

I will stay strong, if only for you,

Because, Sirius Black, I love you!
