Lily Potter:
Can't get them out of my mind. And I find I can't hide from your eyes.

Harry looked up and saw a figure approaching. She wasn't too tall and she carried herself with an air of sorrowful peace, an air of destiny. Her red hair shimmered as she walked towards him, her ghostly form gliding through the trees and over the pools of water. She face was wistful and she looked at him with the greatest green eyes he had ever seen. His eyes. And she spoke.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The last time I saw you, the last time I looked into your eyes I knew. I knew everything you would suffer in your life. And I knew I couldn't save you from it. The last time I looked into your eyes how sweet they looked to me. It felt like the first time I had ever held you. Yes, it felt like the first time to me.
I could hear my love fighting, screaming in the next room, dieing in the next room. I wanted to go to him so much. But I couldn't leave you. I knew I couldn't leave you ever. Not when I knew I could save you. Not when I knew I could never save him. How can I cry knowing I saved your life? This is love.
I could hear the footsteps approaching the door. I could here the echoes of my death to come. And I knew I could run. If I left you I could run. But how can I leave you, my child? How can I leave you to save myself? This is love. He spoke to me, my murderer. Told me that if I left you he would let me live. He would let me live but I would die, die with you. But while you live so do I and that is love.
Even after all these years I can still feel the way your little body pressed against me. And I knew I couldn't hide from my love for you. I died for you because that was the way it had to be. I died for you because this is love; this is the way love has to work. I held you until the end. And in the end I saw your eyes.

She continued to walk towards him, raising her hands and resting them on his head. "Mother." He whispered. "Mother." Lily Potter smiled and looked down on him, almost as if she was blessing him. She kept walking forward, passing into him and disappearing, leaving behind her a sense of peace, a trust and acceptance of destiny. Every time you look in the mirror you see my eyes. In the end you'll know you can't hide. Not from my eyes. This is love.
