Story Notes:
This is a poem, written about my favorite character in all of Potterverse, Albus Severus Potter. I want to thank the amazing Jess, ToBeOrNotToBeAGryffindor, for her help with sorting this out. (I had no idea what it was until I had finished it)

Also, I don't own anything you recognize. J.K. Rowling probably does, though.

C. I don't have a c. Enjoy!




Drowning



It's surrounding me;
Suffocating,
Strangling,
Taking away my very breath.


Mr. Potter, your son was possessed


Agonizing;
I know no future,
No past --
just Pain.


It drove him insane;


Worse than any curse,
Burning hotter than a thousand fires;
The pain has overtaken me,
It's swallowed me whole.


Eventually, he drowned in it.


I drown in the pain.
It's holding me under,
I can't breathe.
I fight and struggle,
but there is nothing to fight for.


He drowned in his own insanity.
I can tell you this, though:



No one's left;
It's just me.
But still I fight
In anger and fear.


He fought it
With every fiber of his being



Everything is blurring,
I'm losing.
I struggle harder,
feeling the weight pushing me farther.
The end is near,
but still I fight.


It was too strong,
Even for someone like you,
I suspect




You haven't died in vain.


You should be proud, Mr. Potter.
End Notes:
In case it was unclear, this is about Albus Severus. He is definitely my favorite character EVER, (though James Sirius is up there) and I hope you liked it. :)
