Hope

--

I've seen a hundred futures fall

A thousand red sunrises

The moon has a bloody halo

The sky an endless cape

Too many flowers bloom and die

Long before their prime

Soldiers on a battlefield

Fighting pointless fights

Why do they bother bleeding

When living's just as hard

Why should they fight

When they can't win

Pandora's box is open

It can't be locked again

Hope is just a myth

Told to foolish souls

Evil is upon us

Showing us what's real

Our weapon never was

He'll conquer in the end


A/N: Again, most of this is self-explanatory. The way I see it, it's not that Voldemort is really all that powerful, he just intimidates people to a point that makes it seem pointless to resist. Hope is the greatest defense just as the absence of hope is the greatest weapon. That is what gave Harry power: his ability to hope for a better future.
