A Wanted Escape

4th year had just ended a few weeks ago. Summer had begun. The Dark Lord was back. Harry was constantly reliving his encounter in the graveyard every night. And he was stuck with the Dursleys. Just two days ago he had to face a Dementor with Dudley in a dark alley.

Harry had discovered that Dumbledore had been keeping a close watch on him. Harry knew something was going on and it made him ANGRY!!! His two best friends knew everything that was going on and wouldn't tell him. He was kept in the dark. And he was getting rather sick of it. He wanted to escape from this terrible life. Why did everything always have to happen to him? Why did Voldemort have to exist? And why won't anyone tell him what is going on?

Harry was sitting at his desk asking himself a million questions. He was too angry to even think straight. Then he had and idea. He got a blank piece of parchment and a qwill. Then wrote...

When Harry was done he looked at the letter with a smile. "That should get their attention. Now all I have to do is find a way to get out of here," he said briskly to himself. He put the letter in an envelope. Then he gathered up all of his books, wand, and other magical objects he owned and shoved them in his trunk and put it under his bed ready to go.

A day had passed. The Dursley's were leaving. Something about winning a contest. But it didn't matter to Harry. He watched out his window as the Dursley's pulled away from the drive. Now was his chance. He brought all of his things downstairs and out the backdoor.

He attatched the letter to Hedwig's leg. "Come on girl, I'll be back before you know it. Just give this letter to Ron and Hermione and stay with them alright? I'll miss you," he told her. He watched her fly off into the distance until he could no longer see her. Then brought his attention back.

He concluded that carrying his things in the condition they were in was not an option. He thought of using magic. "Oh well, it's not like I'll be here when the stupid letter arives from the ministry. Besides, how much more trouble could I get in?" he asked himself with a small smirk forming on his mouth.

He pulled his invisability cloak and Firebolt out of his trunk then muttered a charm to make the trunk smaller. He put the trunk in his pocket. He hopped on his broom with the cloak on him and flew in the opposite direction as Hedwig.

Grimauld Place

Harry was missing. The Order was going crazy just searching for him. Hermione was laying on her bed worrying what happened to him when she heard a tapping noise on the window. She looked up to see Hedwig. Hermione opened the window to let her. She released the letter from the white owl and fed Hedwig some treats. She noticed the letter was from Harry.

"RON!!!" she shouted throughtout the house. The letter was adressed to her and Ron so it was only right for him to see what was in it at the same time.

"What?!" he asked her walking in the bedroom.

"Harry sent us another letter," she told him. The two immediately read the contents inside. What they found had shocked them.

Dear Ron and Hermione,

I wrote a poem to help you understand how I feel. When you get this I will probably have been gone by now. I just need to let you know how I felt. I don't mind if you show this to anyone else. It won't matter anyways. It's not like they could find out where I am. I have decided to go somewhere and start over.

Sometimes

I wish I was brave

I wish I was stronger

I wish I could feel no pain

I wish I was young

I wish I was shy

I wish I was honest

I wish I was you not I

'Cause I feel so mad

I feel so angry

I feel so callused

So lost, confused, again

I feel so cheap

So used, unfaithful

Let's start over

Let's start over

Sometimes

I wish I was smart

I wish I made cures for

How people are

I wish I had power

I wish I could lead

I wish I could change the world

For you and me

'Cause I feel so mad

I feel so angry

I feel so callused

So lost, confused, again

I feel so cheap

So used, unfaithful

Let's start over

Let's start over

'Cause I feel so mad

I feel so angry

I feel so callused

So lost, confused, again

I feel so cheap

So used, unfaithful

Let's start over

Let's start over

I feel so mad

I feel so angry

I feel so callused

So lost, confused, again

I feel so cheap

So used, unfaithful

Let's start over

Let's start over

Let's start over

I will come back at to Hogwarts when term begins. But until then, bye!!!

Your loving friend,

Harry James Potter

P.S. Please take care of Hedwig for me. Thanks
