More Than This

I still can't believe you're gone

it seemed like yesterday you were walking into that maze

(oh right, it was yesterday)

and then Harry came back with your body

and my world collapsed

it fell right

d

o

w

n

my heart became mangled

tangled into thousands of knots that will never undo

.

He said it was You-Know-Who

I don't want to believe it, but all the evidence is there

no one else would want to hurt you

you're Cedric Diggory:

loyal Hufflepuff with the bravery of a Gryffindor

.

You were never meant to die so young

you were meant for more than that

we were meant to live happily ever after

you

me

and our children

.

It's so unfair

I hear the wind call your name to me

cedriccedriccedriccedric

it hurts to hear it

but I know you'd want me to be strong

so I will

and I hope you're calling my name

chochochocho

because you keep me fighting, Cedric

.

I hope you know how much I loved you

how much I still love you
