Just a small poem I wrote from Lydia's point of view and her feelings for Tom Riddle. Written as a sibling piece for my story 'Vanity'.


Haunted

Feeling used

And I can't wait to be back

Alone in his dangerous eyes

My beautiful disaster

And I swear,

There's got to be more to life

Than waking up screaming

How the world won't turn

The moon won't rise

The shadows just can't survive

Until you taunt the life from my eyes,

From my eyes, from my skin

Sneaking up behind a girl

Whispin' shivers down her arms

Pale skin & dark, cruel eyes

Malice all around

Cunning will abound

I swear I can't stand that smug look

I'm kissing off your lips

So take me out one last time

Cut into me with the worst weapon

On your wall of tricks:

The jeering knowledge of just bad I need you
