Love Is Leaving: The End





There were times I knew
But I found it hard to say
You were special in my life
Never thought you'd go away
I'll be strong, I'll get by
Without you in my life
I can see through your lies
Did you ever love me
I never found your love...
One day there was a fanfiction author. Harry Potter fanfiction, to be exact. Every single second of every single day, you could find her gazing intently at her monitor, tapping furiously on her grungy-looking keyboard, dirty with fingerprints and eraser smudges from doodling the names of certain evil rivals of Harry on her keyboard. She punched out story after story, always becoming impatient and bored with the idea. She got bad reviews. She got good reviews. She got flames and awards. She got bashed, praised, reveiwed, ignored. She was pretty happy with her online life...until she realized that an online life meant no offline life.
You and I know
Love is leaving
And you don't want me anymore
Why should I even try
You and I know
Love is leaving
Now you're the last thing on my mind
Someone else I will find
A memory I've left behind

She also realized that she hadn't read a single Harry Potter book in over six months. In fact, she'd read so much fanfiction that she started forgetting what she read had happened in the published novel or in a fic! She tried reading GOF, but when people died in it, and it still remained happy, she felt anger towards JKR. She killed 4 people in book 4, and the book was still so...happy. It was disgusting!!!! She hated Harry Potter! And so, she flung herself towards the computer, to work towards getting rid of all the HP fandom that clouded her conscience.
If I ever made you cry
Any reason I can't find
It was lonely by your side
Like a fool I stood by you
I'll be strong, I'll get by
Without you in my life
I can see through your lies
Did you ever love me
I never found your love...

She unsubscribed from the elists she was on about it, deleted all her fanfic pals off her buddy list, emptied the archive folder on her desktoip with over 100 unpublished fics in it, and cleared her favorites list. Then she sat down and began to type up her final fic: "Love Is Leaving: The End."
You and I know
Love is leaving
And you don't want me anymore
Why should I even try
You and I know
Love is leaving
Now you're the last thing on my mind
Someone else I will find
A memory I've left behind

Yes, that author is me. I've devoted my life to fanfiction. And now I have to devote my life to my life.
Is there something I could do
Is there something I should say
Is there someone else to keep me from the night

It's been fun, but I will never speak the words Harry Potter again. Flame me all you want...I will not read your mail. I am gone. Love is leaving. This is it. To all of you who loved me, I'm sorry. To all of you who hated me, don't think you won because I'm gone. I'll never surrender.
You and I know

Goodbye HP world, hope you have a nice life. Remember, all, this is a temporary obsession. It, too, will someday be gone.
