Author's Note: This was done as a request. Sorry it took me so long but Lily's a hard mind to get into. J.K. Rowling doesn't go into much detail on her (unless I missed it). I hope you enjoy. Thinking of changing the title to something else, like Perspectives. What do you think?
Thank you to: Setsiuri (hope you like this) and Deja-vu. Would you really eat me if I didn't write more? I assure you that I'm more skin and bones than meat. *g*
Lily's p.o.v.
I never thought that my death
Would be like this.
But I can think of no better way to go,
Than sacrificing my life to save my son's.
I feel you here, helping me.
My Friend and Confidant,
My Steadfast Protector,
My Severus.
For you always were mine.
Even though I turned you away,
You stayed to watch over me.
I never knew.
I didn't want to know.
But you kept your word.
I remember the first time I saw you.
Standing in the cold train station,
Alone in the crowd.
Dressed all in black,
With your pale face,
And those shy, soulful eyes.
You were different,
You were awkward,
You were like me.
I thought I'd found a friend in you.
But then, we met again in school,
You mocked me in front of the others.
Do you know how much that hurt?
To have you turn away?
Then I was attacked by those who disapprove of me,
And cried out for help,
Not one there offered to help me.
But then, you saved me from the mocking crowd.
In your strong arms,
You carried me away to safety.
"Don't come back to this place, Lily.
It isn't safe for you here."
I still remember the plea in your voice.
Looking up into your frightened eyes,
I knew that I was right about you,
My Silent Guardian.
Let the others say what they want.
I know the truth.
I think Remus suspects,
Though he would never say a word.
I must leave,
The attack is over.
But the evil isn't gone.
You know it to, don't you?
You can still feel him.
Promise to watch over Harry,
Guard him as you guarded me.
Farewell,
My Severus.
The End.
Shameless Plug: I have a story here called "Those Who Define Fate". I'd like to know what you think
