"Lucius thinks about his life while in Azkaban. for aphephobia"

[underlucius]

"That's for remembrance..."

Four walls full square, a bed a jug a man,
Hair shorn, wand snapped, the Malfoy power docked
Full forgot by master, wife - unmanned
By lover, cruel, and in the dark, I'm mocked.
I would the walls were white, the ceiling cream
Bright searing light, for they'd not mind of you
Black calls you forth, nightmare, vision, dream
Oh Severus, have you forgotten too?
Is naught for us? No touch for me to hope for?
Is this the life that I have been bestowed?
Are truly lost those youthful words we both swore?
Can I be lost if you are on the road?
The darkness here is deeper than your eyes
Send me rosemary, my boy, and not goodbyes.

I don't know what it is about LUcius that makes me love doing him Sonnets but yes, he suits it! Thank you so much - it was kind of what I'd hope people would take from it, the sense of raw desperation. I was horrified that he'd been dumped there for over a year and seemingly no-one was bothering to try and get him out!

Thank you so much! (and icon LURVE btw...)

Gorgeous, heartbreaking, and utterly classy. With a Hamlet reference. Brilliant!

Thank you so much! In my sick little backstory, Rosemary always reminds Lucius of Severus. He used to carry potions ingredients around in his pockets and on Lucius' last day of school Severus didn't have anything to give him, and delved in his pockets and gave him a sprig of rosemary. He was only 11-12, bless him.

*sniff*

I'm glad you liked it!

...Well, it's not as though I was spoiled for choice. It was that, or the flobberworms in my other pocket...

*dies laughing*

Now there you put your finger on the difference between Lucius and Severus. Lucius takes it as a grand romantic gesture and associates it with Severus through out his whole life. With Severus it was the lesser of two ingredients. He might have got flobberworms.

LOL!!!!
