Prompt: Line
Character: Albus Potter


Lines, boxes, names
Golden tapestry, ancient history
Past, present, future

His touch is light, but his heart is heavy
As he traces the l e g a c y, his legacy
(But it doesn't belong to him)

H a r r y P o t t e r
The Boy-Who-Lived
Hero, savior, father
(who cares about that?)

G i n n y P o t t e r
War veteran, Holyhead Harpy
Quidditch player, rebellion-starter, mother
(no one cares about that, either)

J a m e s P o t t e r ( I )
L i l y P o t t e r ( I )

They're heroes, too (of course, they are)
And their lines s t r e t c h, spreading like a spiderweb
To all the other Potters who came before

And what is he?
A l b u s S e v e r u s P o t t e r
Just another box, another line c o n n e c t e d
To ancestors long-dead and parents long-remembered?

He's just a boy
With a l e g a c y that spans the ages
He's got a tapestry, filled with lines
Filled with memories and wisdom

Spidery threads, scattered across the surface,
Connecting e v e r y o n e in this legendary family
Their names will go down in history

Will his?

Why?

He's just a l i n e,
just a b o x,
just a n a m e
among m i l l i o n s

So, the obvious answer is:
Go make something out of yourself
Be a hero, a revolutionary, a legend

And when he does ('cause he will)
He'll be more than just a l i n e

(You'll be a legend, little boy
Just you wait and see)


Author's Notes: Hm, I'm quite fond of this one. Albus is just so awesome, isn't he? And this fits perfectly with my 50th story (posted and would appreciate reviews and is also the reason I didn't update this sooner), so I hope you guys liked it! And thanks to everyone who reviewed! You guys cracked 100! I love you all! =D

Again, please don't favorite without reviewing! Thank you!
