Disclaimer: Not mine, J. K. Rowling's…I know, I know…
Sudsy and Stinky
I know you're there
Watching me
But I wonder
Why did you
Have to leave?
You weren't ready
To die…
You'd hold me tight
And whisper
Of everything
You wanted to do,
You'd be an Auror
And follow Harry
To the ends of the earth.
We'd travel around the world…
We'd grow old together,
Ced,
You'd stroke my hair
And I'd run my fingers through yours
I still remember
Our dance
At the Yule Ball,
You held me
And you told me I was beautiful
And the candles made your hair
So bright
And we forgot all our problems
Because your eyes
So grey
Swallowed me up
And we didn't say
Anything,
And the rest of the world disappeared,
And your fingers on my waist
Were so warm…
I can still feel your lips on mine…
Your heartbeat right next to me,
Your fingers wiping away my tears,
Your hair falling into my face,
I don't know
Why
I cry
And sob like this
In the middle of the night
Alone
With the darkness eating at me
I want to stop
But I can't…
I cry because now no one
Wipes away my tears,
Ced.
They don't make me laugh…
And so
In the darkness of the night
With no one watching
I know you're there…
And I tell you
About everything,
You can hear me,
Ced,
I know you can.
You're right here…
So I won't move.
I'll wait for you…
I wouldn't want you
To miss me
When you come back…
They called us the
Perfect Couple:
CHO AND CEDRIC
They even thought about
CHO DIGGORY…
Ced, they never really got it…
They say I've forgotten you,
But I'm waiting…
And I see you
Every night…
You've got bigger things to
Worry about
Than me.
Like coming back.
Oh, Ced,
When you didn't come out…
The world fell apart
And Hufflepuff will never
Look at Gryffindors
The same way
And the Ministry
Will never be trusted…
Every time I see
That Quidditch field
That you haven't walked out of
I can't play…
So I won't play…
Not until you come back,
You'd correct me…
And we'd tease each other
About who won
And who lost
And you'd call me
Your flying beauty,
Your Wonder on Wings,
A Beauty on a Broom…
And I'd call you
Ceddy,
Or Cedders,
Or Sudsy,
to annoy you
And you'd call me
Stinky…
And I'd pretend to yell
Because CHO did NOT
Mean stinky.
It was our inside joke…
And I tell you everything
That I kissed
Harry
And I flirted
With Roger…
You smile at my words
Because you know
They're not like you…
It's not love…
It's too deep
For something like that…
I know you're there
The way Malfoy knows
He'll have to lose,
The way mum knows
God watches her,
The way you know
How to make me laugh…
You put your hand behind my hair,
On my neck,
In the same old place
And my head
Goes on your shoulder,
Right there
In that nook,
You're right there,
Ced,
Always there
In the night
I can see you…
No one knows,
But I do…
You're not dead,
Right?
No,
Because we're going to grow old together.
So I'm going to wait
For you
To come out
Of the Quidditch Field,
Sudsy,
Because you're there…
So I'll
Wait…
I have to live,
Cedric,
Even if it hurts
Because how will you find me
When you come back?
The world
Has turned its head
To other things…
But I won't forget…
I'm waiting Sudsy…
