Time

I was the best of times

It was the worst of times

When he first became mine

No one thought we'd last

Seen as hollow shells

Poor excuses

I a pureblood snob

Neutral during the war

He a pureblood strayed too far

Engulfed by the dark

But I was just reserved

And he merely mislead

He was the ray of light in my world

My sister's death tore a hole in my heart

And he patched it as best as he could

His pale blond hair grew shaggy over his pointed features

But that rare smile made me gasp

And go weak in the knees

My heartbeat raced

Illogically

And he claimed that I was his heart

That I was his anchor to the world

He became my world

And I his

The best of times emerged from the worst

And flourished

I watched him grow

Mature

Come into his own

And the worst of times faded from my mind

The best of times are all I think of

And he and I will be eternal
