1. The Family Pearl by Sly Severus

The Family Pearl by Sly Severus
When I was a little girl,
I was the family pearl.
Everyone loved me,
It was sad to see.

I was never anything great,
I simply knew my fate.
I did as I was told,
And let myself become cold.

Bella was the passionate one:
She could shine like the sun.
Her life is gone,
And yet I live on.

Andromeda was the brave one:
I thought her life would be fun.
She lost her whole family,
But that couldn’t happen to me.

I was never anything great,
I simply knew my fate.
I did as I was told,
And let myself become cold.

I guess I won the fight,
Must’ve done something right.
From my life they are gone,
And now I must move on.
