Like the fact the the person Sirius cared about most in the world was you. Like the fact that your were coming to regard Sirius as a mixture of a father and a brother.
-Albus Dumbledore
Father-brother Love:
If only I had told you,
How much you meant to me,
If only you'd gone down knowing,
I'd feel so much less guilty.
I'm sorry I was so stupid,
It's my fault that you died,
If I hadn't fallen for the trick,
You would still be alive.
Father-brother love,
Is the only way to describe,
What I felt inside my heart,
When I looked into your eyes.
You were my inspiration,
The father, the brother I never had,
You treated me like an equal brother,
And you loved me like a dad.
I saw you die in battle,
And end all your strife,
And to bring you back,
I'd lay down my life.
I talked to you before it happened,
You seemed just fine then,
You laughed and challenged your killer,
Just before the end.
The fear and shock on your face,
Eternally imprinted there,
Marks my last sight of one truly brave,
Something very rare.
I waited for you to come out,
From behind the veil,
Lupin told me not to,
He said I would fail.
But I will wait a lifetime,
I'll wait until the end,
Someday I will find you,
And we'll be together again.
I saw you fight with honour,
You didn't deserve to die,
I miss you more than you'll ever know,
I love you and good-bye.
This poem is dedicated to the late Sirius Black. May he rest in peace.
