Alone, alone, alone again
With broken branches dancing in the wind
The grass of summer has withered and died
Flowers wilting like the spread of darkness over his heart.
Was there ever a sun in his life?
With shadows driven in its wake
The girl smiles and his heart used to dance.
She is not here anymore.
Severus small and lonely alone
Little boy lost
No Lily to save him
For he drove her away.
Alone again,
He stands watching
His reflection in the river
With no young girl to stand beside him.
He imagines he can see her face.
It taunts him still.

Sunlight dances across the water
As joy and excitement dance across her face.
The spray of the ocean over the side of the boat
Leaves Luna Lovegood longing for more.
Cast off from the land
The land where closed minds stay
Rotting in their cynicism.
Luna will explore the earth,
Searching for things that do not exist.
Or only existing in the creative mind
Of one who refuses to accept banality.
If darkness and shallow people can be real,
Why not Crumple-Horned Snorkacks?
Luna will find them all,
If only in her heart.
Somewhere, something incredible
Is waiting to be known.
Luna will find it.
