A/N: I wanted to post this because I actually like it. I'm sorry, but I don't think that J. K. handled the Sirius issue very well. Harry spends most of fifth year very moody and pissy because of Cedric's death, but spends hardly a month on Sirius dying? Can we say no? Anyway, a poem I thought would fit his reaction.

People tell me they know how I feel,

but that cannot be right.

I don't know how I feel,

only that everything is less bright.

Ever since that day,

the one where Sirius died.

I haven't felt much of anything.

I haven't even cried.

It's like someone took my insides,

and pulled them out of me.

I am neither alive nor dead.

I can only be.

The only thing I can feel

to show me I'm not dead,

is horrible, painful longing

that fills me up with dread.

I need someone to help me,

pick me up off the ground.

Someone who is willing to lose me

when I don't want to be found.

I want to warn you now.

I'll never be complete.

This war has room only for winners,

and Voldemort likes to cheat.

I'm sorry to be a burden,

but I need someone to care.

I'm stuck here at the Dursley's,

and nobody does there.

A/N2: If you could please review, it would help. I need the feedback to know if I should post again or not.
