a/n: here's some depressing poems for your enjoyment...I think this will just be a chapter of poems to convey how Sirius and Emmeline are feeling...please R&R
Depression
The sun graces us with its presence
while others flock outside
to bathe in the golden rays
but I don't feel it
I can't see the bright light
it's just a dull gray
though all I see
is the black night
no stars twinkle
in my desolate sky
I'm sleepwalking
through this endless nightmare
a hard, fake plaster
coats me and
my broken true self
lurks in the shadows
away from the terror
away from indecision
shrouded
in misery
fright
and utter indifference
that frightens me more
than fear itself
Tears Fall
tears fall
like despondant tokens
of our misery
and leave us broken
and hoping
for a new sun
to shine down
and warm the ground
but our depression
never passes
because the world
remains grey
and as you look around
you know it's here to stay
everywhere
it's apparent
when you see
shattered hopes
destroyed dreams
angry faces
no more love
shines through the world
and all there is
is harsh winds
destructive storms
and the creases
on our faces
from unuse and hurt
that were never
there before
become obvious
more and more
our faces
wear a uniform expression
as sorrow rules
and our tears fall
like jewels
Flower
picture a flower
it's just a bud
a bee, yellow and black
comes to rest
on its pure white petals
the flower blooms
its leaves
reach towards the sun
its pollen floats
along towards the bee
it is beautiful
the bee flys away
promising to visit
taking the flower's
pollen with it
picture the flower
drooping
dejected
unseen forces
tear it up
its stem leaks juice
its pure white petals
turn deep bloodred
it's torn up
it falls
and its soul
dies
as it one last
time
wishes
for the bee
to take its pollen
once more
Distant
even though between us
there's a distance
I'll be by your side
in an instance
you're free to leave
if you wish
but just know that
you I'll miss
because you can always
make my heart sing
when I see you
it does crazy things
I love to be by your side
for days and days
I can never from you
stay away
and if it's a walk
a stroll or a dance
for you I'll always
take a chance
when you're there my colors
always seem brighter
and I feel more beautiful
and the sun is lighter
and it simply happens when
i stand next to you
and only for someone
special
will I stay true
and I would have to
say
that that special
someone
is most definitely
you
a/n: I promise next chapter, actual story, but I found a gazillion poems, so I decided to get most of them out of the way in a oneshot so I could continue with the rest of the story in the next chapter. Please R&R!
