The Potions Master
Walking down the torch-lit hallways,
Thinking only one word : Always.
That one day her curtain falls,
That one day that Death calls.
I will not forget her body, sprawled,
I sat there on the floor and bawled.
My cheeks flush, my face red,
Why not the other boy instead?
Over the years, I act on lies,
But I won't get my desired prize.
I live and die for love and hope,
Distractions are only how I cope.
I'm on his side, Dumbledore,
I wish I could have helped her more.
I would kill Peter, he killed Lily,
But then I ask myself : really?
Still walking in the corridors,
I can't help thinking I want more.
It's not fair, no one cares,
It was her death I couldn't bear. I'm all alone, then I die,
I don't know where my body lies.
Do I still love Lily? Of course I do,
But she's happy without me, I'll tell you.
So now I walk the torch-lit hallways,
Thinking only one word : Always.
