My Life By Severus S.

I'm all alone

Here lying prone

So scared of Home.

My father screams

My mother weeps

I have bad dreams.

My mum he bashes

Down halls he crashes

It's me he thrashes.

In fear I moan

He likes my groans

When he breaks bones.

He calls me weak

My future's bleak

Dark wizard freak.

I'm on my bed

He hurt my head

Wish I was dead.

My mother tries

To sympathise

As my soul dies.

I go to school

Marauders rule

To me they're cruel.

Such pranks they play

To spoil my day

I'm easy prey.

I'm on the brink

My spirits sink

So Death I drink.

I've been real bad

Nightmares I had

And woke up mad.

Don't want to try

I just got by

I hoped to die.

Recovery's slow

They'll let me know

To Hogwarts go.

Mum's freedom calls

No more dark halls

Or dark four walls.

Shonsey's my friend

To help me mend

My fear to end.

And Dumbledore

Who won't ignore

My need for more.

He's now my dad

I'm now his lad

We're both so glad.

Bad verse I try

Rhymes I apply

For now, goodbye!
