Choices have consequences

The thought pounding through her head

Life has choices

Why did she make this one

Choices have rules

The broken record plays in his head

Life took his

Why did he have to leave her alone

Choices have voices

The path before him waivers

Life waits for decisions

Why did they force this one

Choices have regrets

The light within her asks questions

Life takes root

Why can I not look in the mirror

Choices have forces

The burden beats at his heart

Life is not what he wants

Why did they make her choose another

Choices have memories

The glow of one night moves on

Life grows within her

Why does she not tell him

Choices have moments

The choice to speak to Ron

Life needs to be explained

Why does she hesitate

Choices have futures

The reason to exist is her

Life needs to change

Why does Draco get all the luck

Choices have boundaries

The choice to love another's child

Life has momentum

Why does my heart hurt

Choices have dirty laundry

The tears fall as wind blows

Life has beginnings

Why can't she breathe

Choices have shape

The smoke of a thousand cigarettes floats through

Life has endings

Why can't he breathe

Choice have rewards

The strength she needs as they stand

Life goes on

Why is he breathing for everyone

Choices have terror

The sorrow drowns her thoughts

Life stops on a thought

Why am I still here

Choices have deaths

The haze of waiting for her

Life no longer exists except in her

Why is he still here

Choices have paths

The pain he wishes she could take away

Life says "It's Okay"

Why does he not believe it

Choices have joy

The pain fades into the past

Life starts again

Why does she look like another

Choices have ghosts

The faded presence of him in her brain

Life moves on without him

Why can't he say "I don't have feelings"

Choices have love

The stone in the ground hold despair

Life forces movement

Why is she still with me

Choices have relief

The cold of the graveside forces her tears

Life offers support

Why does Draco still stand beside her

Choices have stages

The presence in the world fades

Life provides his little one love

Why can't he stay in his smoky form

Choices have finality

The choice to love a little ginger

Life creates stories

Why am I left to tell his daughter why we miss him

Choices have families

The ones they make from consequences

Life move beyond the memories

One little ginger girl, one ginger ghost and two healing hearts beat together
