Drabble H/D

[moonlite_tryst]

To all my friends out there currently doing battle with the Big D. Belive me when I say that there will, one day, be light in your life again. The road may be long and rocky, and you don't need to travel it alone, but the light will return. And oh, my friends, how beautiful it will seem because of the darkness you've left behind.

Here's a little something I wrote the last time the Big D had me in it's thrall a couple of years ago.

Draco,

I don’t have your gift of eloquence, so please understand my clumsy attempt at putting my feelings into words.

I’ve battled with this demon that sits on my shoulders like an enormous shadow for the last 20 years, scoring minor victories here and there but never truly winning the war, and I am exhausted.

I want peace.

Some days the demon’s wings overshadow me so much that it seems like the light has gone out of my life, leaving me to drown in a despair so suffocating it's difficult to withhold and, at the same time, draw breath, or even want to.

And that sense of hopelessness frightens me.

And you, Draco, once branded a so-called child of the dark, are my source of light and always have been; guiding me through the shadows, bringing hope back into my life. But I know I’m becoming too tired to follow the light and I need help.

All my love,

Harry

“We’re ready for you now Mr Potter if you’d like to come this way,” said the Healer. Harry rose from the chair and turned to give Draco a tight smile.

Draco returned the smile, letter in hand. “I'll see you tomorrow. And Harry,” he choked, “let there be light.”
