A/N. I know it's already been done even though the book was out only yesterday, but I can't help myself…it was so sad…oh well…life is life as death is death…

Falling Through The Veil

Surrounding darkness

Pierced by shafts of light

Never meant to shine

I hear you

See you

Feel joy that we're united

I'm not alone now

Never will be

No, not now

Shouts echoing 

Cutting through my head

Into the bolt of lightning

I try to run

They fall

Not dead though

I really wish they were

A glass ball from my hand

Crashes to the ground

And shatters

I should have known

Then, to get you out

You were protecting me

It should have been

The other way round

So close

So far

I see you

Wand in hand

A shadow advances

You know her

'Toujours pur'

Never wanted anything

To do with them

Family ties break

Like a spider's web in the rain

Yet blood runs deep

And she curses you

 Blackness again

Though now in my heart

I watch

Silently

Dread filling me

As you fall

Taking with you my dreams

My hopes

Of one day being a family

It hits me

Almost knocking me out

You are not coming back

Never

You look peaceful

A memory for me to keep

To let me live

Accept your sacrifice

I cry

As you are, into death beyond

 Falling through the veil

A/N: and that was it…it seals it, he's dead. I'm still having a hard time believing it (but I'm not going to go all Fudge on J.K). I hope at least some of you appreciated it…

Lots of love
