A/N: Written in a Music lesson for an OC of mine, Sirius' lover Monique,
just after Lily and James were murdered and she was also pushed down stairs
in a fight with Death Eaters and lost her baby. Lily was her best friend,
they were as close as twin sisters.
She Can't Cry
Why isn't she crying?
When her friends are gone
And her world is dying
But she can't cry
There's frozen tears
Inside
She's living a waking nightmare
Deep inside
And she won't cry
No she can't cry no more
A walking dead girl
Day by day
She lives inside a cage
To push her fears away
And still she won't cry
Tears are for the lesser dead
Not for her love
Not for the echoes
That still live inside her head
That's why:
There's frozen tears
Inside
She's living a waking nightmare
Deep inside
And she won't cry
No she can't cry no more
(She cried so long, made her eyes so sore
She can't cry for nothing no more)
And then she sees the full moon,
And hears the werewolf's cry
It calls to something within her
Deep down inside:
Come back to your friends now
Learn once more to grieve
Be the child that you once were
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Lying on her bed now,
Ice still in her eyes
Finally freeing her tears
From their prison deep inside
Lays flowers on their gravestones
And though she knows they're dead,
When she sleeps she's dreaming
Of her friends laughing instead
There's no more tears
Inside
Though she's still living a nightmare
Deep inside
But at last she can cry
Yes she's learnt to cry again
And now she is crying
Through the rain falling around her
Fire melts the ice in her eyes
And lights the soul inside her
And the flowers on her friends' gravestones
Can blossom in the rain
Because she has survived them
And begin to live and love again
