Horcruxes

 

I have many bottles

they sit on a shelf

they are quite pretty

I made them myself

They hold different things

some fizz some settle

some yearn to be let out

like steam from a kettle

I will free them one day

let them fly float fall

vanish like the mist

or take over it all

Just not now my sweets

now’s not the time

not for a little while more

it is not a crime

it is not a crime

I am just too busy

there are things to be done

no time to be dizzy

With laughter and sorrow

loneliness and glee

I will feel you tomorrow

I will. You will see

I will feel every feeling

every last one of you

let you rain over me

and soak me through and through

You must have patience

and wait for that day

till then you are safe

till then you’re okay

And I am okay too

..

I have many bottles

They sit on a shelf

They are horcruxes actually
