A/N: Hi everyone! This is sort of like chapter 4 ½ instead of five. I wrote it with the feelings Harry must have had during the summer of OotP in mind. Hope y' all like it!
Pain
Pain.
It claims our bodies,
Our very minds and souls,
We wish it would just leave us be,
Never again to come our way.
We wish it would spare us of its talons of hate,
Claws of despair,
And words whispered into our ears,
Maliciously at night.
Let it float away in the cool wind, we plead,
So we never have to feel its might.
But wishing doesn't do much,
For pain of the heart.
No matter how hard others may try to understand,
To keep that aching burden at bay,
You know deep down,
That in the end,
You must be the one to banish it away.
What doesn't kill us will make us stronger,
Or at least that is what some may say.
So take up your swords of love,
Prayers of happiness and joy,
And be prepared to fight the wicked things,
Which are sure to be on the way.
Please Review! I will forever love anyone who does!I will be happy to read and review anything if I am asked.
