Sweet Hermione




2nd poem

My poem is about making choices which will affect that friendship, about choosing the lesser of two evils, but it is mainly about losing a friend you love so much. 

---

A smile against the pain 

I loved our days of pretend, just 
a smile against the pain. 
I knew – did I? – I couldn't tell 
the sunshine from the rain. 

Both waiting for a time that 
was always running late. 
Truth is, there was no time 
to stand around and wait. 

Blind as children, stumbling 
uneven terrain. 
I laughed at life, you lived 
on love, drove me insane. 

Something broke, can you 
revive the past? 
Shattered heart, I'll glue 
your pieces to the last. 

I'll help, hurt you, and 
never leave you again. 
I don't know the truth, but 
I'll be with you till the end.
