A shout sounds in a silent room,
It is a dark sound,
Full of malice,
Full of ruin.
A green light flashes in a dark room,
It strikes me in the chest,
Painless,
Deadly.
I collapse backward, mocking laughter fills the room,
I hold my baby safe,
Protected,
Alive.
My soul flees my body in a shattered room,
My baby lives for now,
Endangered,
Orphaned.
My baby lives in a cramped cupboard-room,
I speak to him on breaths of wind,
Whispers,
Songs.
My baby is in a larger, cluttered room,
Hiding from my sister,
Alone,
Afraid.
My baby is at Hogwarts, in his Common Room,
Standing with his friends,
Happy,
Content.
My baby is standing in my grandchild's room,
Rocking him to sleep,
Safe,
Peaceful.
