here's my Lupin/Tonks poem....

********************
I Don't Care

We used to always be together,
We used to hang out and be silly.
I used to see you as a dear friend,
And you too felt the same for me.

I thought we'd always be this way,
But something inside me has changed.
I felt something stir deep inside
This new feeling I had was strange.

I tried to dismiss whatever it was
Thinking if I did, it would go away.
The more I fought this new feeling
The more it decided to stay.

I sort of didn't want to think
That for you, I was falling.
But I couldn't keep it to myself
To you I revealed this feeling.

But you said it wouldn't work out
You said it just cannot be.
So you pretended I said nothing
You stayed away from me.

I was hurt and it showed
My patronus took a new form.
Others also took notice
They knew it wasn't the norm.

Until one day I broke down
I screamed that I loved you.
I said I didn't care what you were
A promise of a love that's true.

You said I'm not safe with you
You're only thinking for my own sake
Tears filled my eyes and I told you
That it's a risk I'm willing to take.
