My name is Remus Lupin
And I am only four
Today something had happened
Something that's never done before
I was in my room as always
Reading my favourite book
When Mom came up into my room
And gave me a different look
"Dad's away," she had exclaimed
And she hugged me with all her might
She laughed outright like a little girl
It was really quite a sight
I retreated into a corner
Scared by her sudden change
She looked at me and laughed again
As if I was the one who's strange
Then she hugged me once again
And left, on my forehead a kiss
Once more I felt shocked and afraid
Why was Mom acting like this?
She smiled at me, a real smile
And explained it all, you see
How she acted was because of Dad;
She had always really loved me
She had to act like that to me
Because Dad hated the Dark
He hated me that fateful night
The night I got the mark
But Mom knew I was just special
That I'd grow up to be strong
Just here was not the place to be
Here I do not belong
She tried to get me a better life
A life where I was free
She'd thought of Hogwarts, the wizarding school
But would they take in someone like me?
So I promised to study harder
To get a better life
A better life for me and Mom
Amongst all this strife
I just wish Hogwarts could take me
To see who I really am
But no one does; not even Dad
So I surely can't be with them
It might be far, it might be long
But it is all I can ever do
To study than waste my life away
Like Dad had told me to
My name is Remus Lupin
And I am only four
Today something had happened;
My Mom hates me no more

How was that? I'm having trouble with plot ideas for chapter four though. Darn. Review and you'll get chapter three up soon!
