ok... just moving my R/Hr poem from the old thread to here....

*******************

So Close, And Yet So Far

Six years I've known you
Six years you've been there
But why is it so hard
To tell you how much I care?

First year together was bad
All we did was bicker and fight
But in the end, with Harry
I saw you in a different light.

Once, when I heard you get insulted
I was there to defend, and I endured
Disgusting effect of a spell that backfired
And you were there til I was cured.

I think of you as a great friend
My true feelings for you I deny.
That is why I was overly jealous when
You went to the ball with another guy.

I wished it was me with you there
So I sulked and didn't have fun.
That was when I finally realized
For me, you were the one.

It hurt to think of you with him
The thought of you kissing another.
My heart was crushed, and I was lonely
So I turned to Lavender.

But soon, I knew she wasn't enough
It was you who I really wanted.
I know it, and you know it,
Why did I take you for granted?

At night, I look up at the sky
And I wish upon a star.
That I get to be with the girl I love
Who's close, but yet so far...
