Okay, well this is my first attempt at HP related poetry and I suppose the subject is a pretty obvious one because, well, this character just begs to have sad poetry written in his POV! Please feel free to post any critiques you may have for me. Also, please let me know if I formatted anything wrong - this is my first go at this! Not sure if I am posting this right since I am not doing a whole new thread....

Thanks for reading!

Always - Severus Snape to Lilly Potter, in his last moments of life

As the seconds pass,
the world turns
and leaves me behind,
a victim of mistakes and prejudice
and indifference,
the most evil of all evils.
I am fading, I see nothing but haze
I feel nothing but pain
and I close my eyes to escape.


I awaken from a moment of sleep,
the echoes of a dream
still reverberating in my mind.
Those brilliant green eyes,
dark red hair, almost copper
where the sunlight touched it.
I see you as clearly as
if it were yesterday
and we were innocent and new.
Just when the familiar warmth
spreads over my heart,
I remember where I am
and what has transpired since.
You died long ago and
I had merely passed out.


There was not enough ice in the world
to numb the burning whole
where my heart used to be.
I could not block out the black
that has consumed me
every waking moment.
The world remained forever grey,
all colors erased
by your absence.
I was rigid because
I could not ever bend.
I was harsh and cold
because I could not feel anything else
Not while the world
was devoid of your light,
Not while your ghost
was nested in my soul.

Even tonight,
as I lay dying,
You move within me still,
weaving your smiles of gold.
I still remember
how your presence
lit every room,
how your spirit
lifted every heart.
I am breathless at the thought
of you.

We were children together once
and I was foolishly naive to think
that my love would outshine any star.
But I was never meant to know
what the other side of Heaven looked like.
I was never meant to fill the
empty spaces in your heart.
We chose paths, and chose away
from the bonds of friendship
that once held us dear.
And I watched you walk away,
heart bleeding in my hand.
You chose a lesser man,
a man whose vanity broke loose
and ran rampant at the expense
of all around him.
And yet, you saw none of that.
You always saw the best
In everyone,
even me.


I tried to stop what I now know
was only inevitable.
That night, I lost the right to smile.
Boarded my soul away,
barred myself from the light.
You were lifeless in my arms,
what use did I have for joy
if you were no longer its cause?
Blood promises I made
and I was ever devoted,
with a most ardent heart
against even my own nature
just to hold your memory close
to keep you alive in him.
I bore that promise, like a cross
in spite of all that warred within,
your presence marking me forever
as a faithful fool,
as everlasting love.
Always.


Now that I have given everything,
I only want to look in your eyes,
and hear you forgive me for
my insufferable stupidities.
I only want to smell your hair and
see the dazzling smile that
made all other light pale by comparison.
Now that it is over,
I would give anything to love you,
even after I gave everything up
to love you,
even in the agony of death,
to see you through his eyes,
to love your eyes once more...

Ginny
 

To she her walk down the halls.
Her red hair flowing behind her.
The way she walks as if nothing can stop her.
How could I have not seen her the first time.
Why did I not have her right away.
It was because I loved her and wanted her safe.

Dunno how I came up with this silly one. Still it's a poem though :)

Whatever you do,
Just make sure you don't end up to do,
Land on Voldemort's front door.
Cause he'll just Avada Kedavra you!

No matter how the weather is,
Or what your point is,
He'll never listen to you.
Cause hey, he's the Lord of Death.

Slashing through the fear,
And floating on your hope,
You won't even have a chance to look.
Yeah, you've got Kedavra right on you!

Don't ever try a strategy,
He'll know it before you do,
Even Merlin can't save you.
Avada Kedavra, is only a mercy on you.

Newt Scamander
 

from Celestina Warbeck (Molly Weasley's favourite singer) to Newton Scamander, with love..........

Newt Scamander

I ask a Niffler to find you, my treasure
And powerful as an Erumpent, you broke my poor heart into pieces
I'll go away on a Winged horse
And I'll make myself invisible as a Tebo

So, you don't have to
Care
About
Me
Anymore!
Newt, just let me tell you, I
Do love you, and
Each and every day of your life, you might
Regret letting me go!!!

:lmao::lmao: I know it's really bad... You should be thankful of not being able to listen to her singing!!!!:lmao::lmao:
Oh, guys, it's a joke! I promise you that I'm not going to do it anymore this year.
Send me a VM with your comments! :lmao:

Hogwarts Introductory Poem

Witches and Wizards far and wide
Come to the place you don't have to hide
Welcome one and welcome all
Come and find your home in the great hall

Can you see? Can you hear?
Are you far or are you near?
You received your owl
And we promise, your time won't be fowl

Friends you will find, here at school
Just don't sleep too much or you'll drool
In Hogsmeade you will seek
The answers that are bleak

Do not venture into the trees
Or you will encounter more than bees
Though you may see a magical beast
You will need to learn from the best, not the least

Many good years here you will spend
Just make sure you always tend
As an apprentice or a trainee
A future in our world you will receive with a degree.
