&quot;You&#039;re a great wizard, Harry.&quot;<br /> &quot;Not as good as you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Me?! Books! And cleverness! There are more important things, Harry--friendship, and bravery, and--oh, Harry, just be careful.&quot;

We're separated by an ocean
of hurt, questions, and words unspoken.
If I could walk on water
or had a boat
or the courage to try to swim across
I'd already be at your side
but I have none of these things
so I sit
and hope your situation is different.

There's a certain tragedy in not being able to reach someone because of everything that hasn't been said.
