A/N: I don't own Harry Potter
Word Count: 332
Two worlds
mine and his
both existing nearly parallel to each other
never touching
never meeting
despite the warm I feel when he looks at me
despite the pounding in my chest when he comes near me
so much more than a little school girl crush
so much more than just wishful thinking
Two worlds
the darkness and light
and I'm caught betwixt them
She watches me, her eyes staring through my soul
her eyes seeing who I truly am, seeing past the facade
her smile sends chills down my spine
her voice echoes in my mind hours after our last meeting
Two worlds
lines starting to blur
his and mine suddenly starting to change direction
no longer dark and light
grey instead
suddenly a small crush becomes more
as fingers brush against each other
in forbidden glances
forbidden touches
Two worlds
positions changing
no longer in charge
no longer being manipulated by mad men
free at least to pursue, free at last to love
can she love a man with so many skeletons
can she love a man who has broken her spirit before
Two worlds
two lives, once separate
slowly starting to merge
slowly starting to become more
no longer student teacher
no longer spy and warrior
only people, flawed and broken
slowly starting to heal
Two worlds
suddenly crashing together
two hearts suddenly beating in time
yours and mine
and neither can deny how we feel about one another
darkness and light intermingling
darkness and light combining to create something new
Two worlds
completely joined now
no turning back, no breaking away
vows are exchanged, never to be broken
words of power spoken, words of love spoken
and our two worlds have melded into one
One world
no longer two
one world as we heal
facing a new world together
holding each other together
as the crisis we faced seeps into our nightmares
as the world around us changes
and we become who we were always meant to be
