belief

holds you /together\

you have faith in what she tells you,

that you're

S. T. R. O. N. G.

that you're

friends.

when you realize

that boys

a-r-e-n-t. y-o-u-r.

cup of tea,

and that you can't even

(make-friends)

or

[play-quidditch]

it's like the whole (W*O*R*L*D) is against you.

but you found something you enjoy.

'maybe'no'one'else'appreciates'gardening'

but you do.

\ . . . /

and you wonder if she feels it too.

(but apparently, with her many boyfriends, she doesn't)

but you're still half-agony, half-hope

and someday, maybe, she'll come around.

"Wish upon a star, Roxie."

('Wish for me, cause I'm already here')

And I don't think you heard:

I.

Love.

You.

(you just need to keep faith that she's hearing your wishes)


A/N: This was written for the Big/Lil' Sis Team Prompt Competition on HPFC, where I had to write a freeverse based off of my big sis's oneshot, which can be found under her profile (why the caged bird sings-Moment). I used the prompt faith.

Please review!
