Harry and Ron sat in then Den in silence. They were at either ends of the couch. Their knees were brought up to their stomach, and they sat there. Silently crying.
Hermione was gone.
Harry thought of a poem he had once heard, and started to recite it.
Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friend's face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine if, we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
Tomorrow" I say "I will call on Jim"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner!- yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir" "Jim died today."
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
Okay, that was a very short part, but I felt it should stand alone. This was sent to me in an e-mail, and here's the end of it:
Remember to always say what you mean. If you love someone, tell them.
Don't be afraid to express yourself. Reach out and tell someone what
they mean to you. Because when you decide that it is the right time, it
might be too late. Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most
importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have helped
make you person that you are today.
