Never-Ending Battle: Someday

Peace and joy and happiness,

Severus stood in front of the grave stones, onyx eyes cold with emotion. He would not cry. There was a battle to be fought. A promise to be kept. A life to keep a live... a light that someone in this world needed. Silently, he allowed his hand to trace over the carvings on the stone. Overcome with sadness, he stared at the name.

no more sorrow,

Lily.

someday.
