Sleep Well Harry

--

Once your hair was black as night

Once those green eyes glowed so bright

Now there is nothing left of you my friend

But a hallway full of dead ends

--

Years of laughter and of joy

Helping people as the Golden boy

Your face seemed permanently in a grin

Who knew you had so much power stored within?

--

So much bravery, so much strength

Keeping Voldemort at arm's length

Fighting so hard for everyone to live

You gave up more than you had to give.

--

And yet you gave him what he deserved.

Penance for his deeds he shall be served

And yet of you little is left to be told

For the rest of your life shall quickly unfold

--

Soon you shall rest in peace

And never again be wary

You were my best friend.

Sleep well Harry.

A/N: I wrote this after reading the 5th book. It's what happens if neither Harry nor Voldemort make it through the final battle. It can be said through the point of view of any of Harry's close friends.
