A/N: Don't ask about this, I'm not sure what came over me.
She's there at the edge of his mind.
Always.
And if he thinks of her enough she'll visit him in his dreams.
But he doesn't like the dreams. It's not her in them.
Not her.
She's changed in his mind. During the dreams she's cruel and only brings him pain.
Unlike when she was alive. She brought him only joy and love.
He wishes he could go back.
Before the war, and change her mind about her stupid sense of duty.
To tell her it would only get her killed.
Now she only lives in his mind and his dreams, and though it's been so many years, he doubts that will ever change.
He doubts anyone else remembers her now.
So he does it for everyone.
He heart is filled with so many unshared memories. Time with her, quiet and alone.
Only
theirs.
And tonight on the eve of her birth and the day of her death, he misses her most.
This year he's sure he won't make it the last thirty-six hours.
He does not sleep on these nights because she always comes to him now.
And with her comes pain.
For a moment he wonders how he can love her and fear her at the same time.
So tonight….. Will also be his death.
And as the poison reaches his bloodstream he hopes the afterlife is better than this. His only bit of hope in so many years.
And he whispers to the encroaching darkens, "I love you, Ginny."
Severus Snape dies, and no one mourns.
Please read and review! And don't be too harsh. I'm not even sure I wrote it.
