A/N: I know this idea has been done a few times before, but after re-reading DH recently, I kinda felt the need to write this... let me know what you think!

George's Lament

Every time I close my eyes

I see it happen, over and over again

Why must my imagination torture me so?

I try to make it quick,

As painless as possible for Us,

But my mind invents gruesome details of its own accord.

xXx

They tell me we were laughing when It happened.

I'm glad, because now we will never laugh again.

They keep watching, waiting for me

to give them a sign that I'm feeling a little better

But how can I feel better, when We will never feel again?

xXx

When I saw you lying there,

Cold, and still, and white as a ghost

I could not comprehend that We were dead.

xXx

My heart is aching to join You,

To be complete once more.

But when I see Us in the mirror, I understand;

I must stay here with Them, for I am You.

Our heart beats in my chest, our blood flows through my veins.

And although I am yearning to follow You,

Only I can keep Us alive now.

xXx
