AN: This is a poem from Ginny's POV after Harry leaves to hunt for the Hocruxes and I can't decide whether it's okay or complete garbage so feedback would be helpful.


To plummet, to plunge,

To fall,

Is no way to live,

At all.

--Falling in love,

The stuff that dreams,

And nightmares are of.

Wonderful and terrifying,

Breathtaking and electrifying.

Your life and your emotions,

Spin out of control,

And there's no solid ground.

But that takes no toll,

Because most of the time,

You're floating on air, anyway.

--Falling into depression,

Into dismay,

A black hole's a hold of you,

You're sinking fast in quicksand,

Drowning with nothing to hold on to,

And all the world is caving in.

--Falling behind,

Feeling the world,

Is simply passing you by.

And as fast and hard as you try,

You can't catch up,

You don't understand,

You're not good enough.

--Falling apart,

Unable to take it,

Loosing heart,

Feeling everything's horrible,

Yourself most of all,

And you want to run away,

And you want to curl into a ball,

And it's all too much,

And it's not enough,

And you want things to stay the same,

And you want all different stuff,

And you want quiet,

And you want to scream,

And you want to hug someone,

And you want to hit something,

And you want it all to stop,

And you just want life to begin again…

--Falling through the cracks,

Falling on deaf ears,

Falling flat,

Falling short,

Falling from grace,

Falling through,

Falling so many ways,

That I've forgotten which,

I'm doing at the moment.

Perhaps I've finally done it all,

And now just lay alone and,

Fallen,

Unable to get up.


AN: I'm not going to beg but reviews would be nice as they'd let me know whether it's horrible or decent. If I don't get any reviews I'll just assume it's horrible and take it down…
