You

Part Two

*This is about Hermione's feelings...*



Hermione

Why does he look at me that way?

Is there something I should say?

Is it wrong to keep him at bay?

Oh boy,

He stares.

He stares into my soul.

Can he read me?

Does he know what no one knows?

Can he read my mind,

My thoughts and dreams?

Does he know the way I feel?

The way he stares,

I'm feeling flushed,

This is so surreal.

He's my friend,

I tell myself,

But that's not what I feel.

Only my brain listens.

It has no effect on my heart.

Does he know,

Can he feel it,

Like I did from the start?

I didn't know I felt this way

Until he showed me so.

I couldn't know he felt that way,

Cause when others asked

He answered no.

He's one of my best friends,

And I really can't defend

The feeling that he gives me

The way my heart twists and bends.

He's so nice

Under that mask of hard and dry.

Underneath his exterior,

He's as sweet and warm as pie.

We sit here in this room,

Crowded with peers and friends.

I wonder if they know,

And wonder if it will ever end?

This is a hopeless crush?

Somehow I think not so.

Even if we do have feelings,

We can get in a dreadful row.

You're such a sweetie

When you're not jealous.

I could never lie

That you're the only one

To ever make me sigh.

Are boys ever complicated!

I wonder if there's a book?

Well, none would explain him,

So it would be of no use to look.

Why can't he just say he loves me all the way?

It would give me happiness and ease.

His so tender touch,

A warm summer breeze.

Boy,

We'd be so cute together,

But that's not the only matter.

Why can't we be together?

If we were,

Would you love me forever?

I'll be brave and ask you first,

If you think I can be cursed.

When you ask why,

Then I'll reply,

I don't think my fate's the worst.

"If Cupid's arrow has struck me,

Then I stare in awe at you,

For you're the first I must have seen,

And looking so perfect too.

I can't control the want I feel,

I need you here right now.

You're the one I want to hear,

singing a love song.

We've been friends for these five years,

I know that this is strange.

But if I can't have you,

Hold you,

I know I'll be deranged.

So tell me if you love me,

Right here and now.

If you do,

Then hold me,

And never wonder why or how.

If you don't,

Just walk away,

Ignore my sudden cries.

I'll get over you,

But it will take a million blue skies."

I tell you this,

Shakily,

While looking in your eyes.

I'm ready for rejection,

Ready for goodbyes.

Instead,

I get a hand,

And a smile from ear to ear.

A reddened neck,

And crimson, burning ears.

You grab me tight and blissfully tell me,

"Goodnight."
