Not really to Lily but what she saw in Severus...


Longing eyes of the lost boy

Look into his eyes to find what's he thinking?

Sadly you'll never find what you're seeking.

He's an actor you see, a real good one indeed,

Masked by indifference, hiding was his creed.

Search his eyes unguarded, see what lies behind,

Sadness, tricks and lies is always what you'll find.

On the surface he seems cold and unmoving,

But don't judge what you see, looks are deceiving.

Deep beneath the surface lay a hurt young man,

Maybe never able to trust again…

Having seen reality at such a young age,

He locked himself away in his very own cage.

Afraid of others to come on in,

To taunt, to tease and to hurt him.

Time flies and the more he hides away,

The defensive barrier stronger each day.

The happiness he sought further and further away.

Alas he bows his head, "I admit defeat!" he said.

He gave up his desperate search and accepted his fate.

"I was never meant for the light anyway."

But even as years past and feelings grew cold,

The longingness in his eyes will forever show.
