A/N: This is my second poem, lol. It was written for the writting course on Third Floor (check the link in my profile :))
Summary: These were Sirius' thoughts in the moment he was leaving Grymmauld Place to live with the Potters.
Black Inside My Heart
When the night comes it is all black;
Black like the shadows of fear on a tormented heart,
Black like shattered dreams and souls ripped apart.
I feel the lack…
The lack of bright light
In the middle of the cold night.
--------------------------------------------
And I fear the darkness outside.
I fear the unknown
Beyond the depths of that dark pitch black;
That black from which I hide,
Although deep down inside
I know that those blurry shapes I see
Couldn't ever harm me.
----------------------------------------------
Yet I fear the nothingness hidden in the dim;
The cold, the dark void within
My veins and my soul,
Whenever the sun goes down
And dusk takes over the world.
-----------------------------------------------
I fear black and what it means to me…
The grief inside an empty heart
In lack of joy and glee.
A cold heart, dark and vain.
The mysteries behind an anguished soul
Drenched in Havoc and pain.
The chaos inside a maimed mind
Hollow, in wreckage and insane.
-----------------------------------------------------
And I fear to feel that way,
To have my dreams shattered one day.
I fear to feel empty inside,
To let myself go with the tide.
I fear to have my soul ripped apart…
I fear to feel black… inside my heart.
A/N: Hope you like it. Please, please tell me what you think about this poem. I'll be forever grateful :).
