hiya ! looking around portkey, i've noticed that all we have here are fanfics and fanart. but i'm sure that the h/h pairing has ralso touched and inspired many poets and songwriters out there! so with nappa's blessing, i've created this thread for the submission/recommendation of original h/h-inspired poetry and songs.

nappa advised me to establish a few ground rules for this thread, and they are:
1. if you are posting YOUR original poem/song, please indicate this in bold text.
2. if you are recommending someone else's poem or song, please acknowledge your source (e.g. a website)...and give the writer credit!
3. if you wish to post your reviews/comments about a poem/song, please avoid one-liners and offensive language. please make complimentary or constructive comments only.

i do hope that this thread will soon grow into a bigger one! please keep this thread active by posting your poems and comments. i will be adding a few more rules next time, but for now...happy posting! and reading !

I have nothing at all!! I'll just wait for someone to reply I like poetry

The Official Pumpkin Pie Soccer Star

Oh! I have one! It's in my signiture, but all the same ::shrugs::...

Potter is the swiftest one,
Just a while and the game is done,
He caught the snitch the game is won,
Potter is our king!

Granger is the one with brains,
she heals the hurt and all the pains,
she has The-Boy and that's why we're say'n',
Granger is our Queen!

They had met and hit it off,
It's 7 years and now's enough,
They sent us on a wild run,
Goodshippers say it'll ne'er be done,
But that's why we're all singing high,
Nothing Better than Pumpkin Pie!

Maybe I'll come up with another later who knows...::shrugs::

Can I do it to Going under by Evanescence?
They're my own words and they do go with the tune, here it is:

Now I will tell you what this is about,
We all ship Harry Mione.
Loving and caring and being there,
And that is why we love them.
(Love each other!)
Don’t need other ships to tell us we’re wrong,
We will never listen to them
We think that we are right and won’t be proved wrong,
And think we will come out on top!

We know the truth,

We’re going to be right,
And never wrong,
They’ve fallen for each other
He’s got to tell her,
We’re going to be right!

Thoughts and the feelings will soon come to light,
(Someone tell them the truth, of what’s real what’s lies what’s not)
It’s always been there buried deep in their minds,
And now they know the truth like us!

We know the truth!

We’re going to be right,
And never wrong,
They’ve fallen for each other
She’s got to tell him,

So go and say, what you’ve been feeling for so long,
They can’t hide it anymore,
They’ve got to say what we all know is the truth.

We, know the truth,

We’re going to be right,
And never wrong,
They’ve fallen for each other
She’s got to tell him,
We’re going to be right
Going to be right.
Going to be right
We’re going to be right!!!!

What do you think? It's sort of my own, but like I said it's to Going under.

PyroGlitch I loff it. I saw your signature and loffed it then, I think I told you before didn't I?
Hmmm...anyway, I'm looking forward to reading other peoples songs and Poems!

I LOVE IT... Nothing to add as yet however...
I'll think about it!
Love Millie

WOW. Those song/poetry versus are fantastic!!!
But I dont write, I'm a nerd on a computer



Marshmallow

I'm wrote one but it's sad... Its about Harry leaving Hermione. It was inspired when I wrote my fic 'Hey Dad'. Here it is... AND DON'T COPY IT! Oh and by the way this is in Hermione's POV

Silence and Tears

When we two parted
In silence and tears
All broken hearted
In sorrow for the years
I had seen in your eyes
That growing old fear
You had given me those cries
But the end was near.

The dusk of the evening
It fell over my heart
Never said you were leaving
Leaving me in this dark
Your vows were all broken
And your promise was gone
All that was spoken
Was now being torn.

I heard your name being spoken
And shared in its shame
My heart remained broken
Nothing was the same
They knew not that I knew you
Who now know you so well
Long, long had I purred to you
With nothing to tell

In secret we meet
In silence I grieve
That your heart could forget
Your spirit decieve
If I should ever meet you
After long and lonely years
How should I greet you? -
In silence and tears.

There. Thats it. And I'm saying it again! This is copyright ME ME ME! So dont steal it, please?

those are great!!! thanks for posting, you guys!!! oh, and potter_head , it doesn't matter if your poem was about harry leaving hermione. it was still a beautiful poem. and thank you for saying that it was in hermione's pov. oops! better add that to the ground rules!!!

so anyway, thanks for all the posts! and keep those poems/songs/comments coming!

mrs. pepper

Doubt thou the stars are fire;

Doubt that the sun doth move;

Doubt truth to be a liar;

But never doubt I love.

Letters to One Another

Granger Girl, you caught my eye,
Now I'm hooked, your fish to fry,
Meet me here at half past three,
Anonomously Yours, Love,
H.P.

H.P. Love, Your very bad,
At incognito names.
Harry dear if you love me so,
come out of all these games.
Harry Potter, I love you too,
so meet me at the door,
Of the Hogwarts Library,
Tomorrow; half past four.

You love Harry Potter?!
Hermione it's me!
I thought you'd know it would be!
Your tall friend R. Weasley!
I used the letters H.P.
An acronym to send,
H.P. could stand for nothing,
other than Harry's Phriend.

; Ron you dolt, you idiot,
You use F when you spell FRIEND.
And that is all we will be,
now untill the end.
Sorry Ron but like I said,
I truly do love Harry.
It feels so good to say that,
it's been a burdon to carry...

Hermione is this true?
This is Harry by the way,
I can't help but say I love you too...
What else is there now to say?
Ron gave me your letter a while ago,
I read it over a dozen times,
the only thought that crossed me,
was how your signature was signed.
The odd idea had dropped on me,
so don't think I'm a nutter,
but how would this new name sound?
Hermione Granger Potter?

Oh my god thats great!
It's funny too



Marshmallow

This is sorta sad and i need to edit something but call it a draft.

Poor Harry he just wanted a mum.
But no,she was killed by Tom.
laft on the doorstep of his aunt.
But all she does is hurt,scream and taunt.
intill he met a big guy .big ,scary and hairy.
Little did he know that this big guy was his small farie.

Next he met a family of red.
fier like sparks lighting their heads.

Then a girl eyes of brown
she sported a bush like crown.
Known to speak more then just one sound.
This where Harry's new home was found
And this is where poor Harry's story ends.
But fear not my friend a new one begans


like I said I need to add more to some of the parts.

If I give you my hand, will you take it?
If I give you my heart, will you break it?
If I give you my soul, will you let it fly?
If I give you my body, will you let me die?
_________
Hermione thinking about Harry.
I know its small but I have a lot of them in French if you want to read... so if you speak the language of love pm me or something!

We had this activity on the HMS Pumpkin Pie thread at Fiction Alley Park sometime last year, although it was not limited to original poetry by the shippers. Anyway, the one who originated the activity, Nightfall compiled these and archived them at the pumpkinpiearchives group pumpkinpie archives.

The contributions also provided an inspiration for a fic I wrote (Serendipity where I was able to "weave" some of these into the story (although not all for H/Hr). That story can be found here: Serendipity

And finally ... I would like to present the poem made by joyce cohen which remains, to today, among my favorite reminders of H/Hr:

Nighttime – the perfect time
For contemplation, reflection, introspection
Sitting by the fireplace
With a mug of hot chocolate
Rich, dark chocolate
Just like your eyes
Eyes that I could drown in
Lose myself in, find my soul in
For you are my soul

You support me, console me, complete me
If only I could tell you that

But no, you won't respond in kind

I don't deserve you, won't deter you
From your heart’s true course

But wait, I've seen you gaze at me
The way I gaze at you

You're smart; you'll realize it, too

One day, you'll find me sitting here
In the lonesome nighttime
And no longer be alone
One day, someday, soon

:sniff:

Congratulations to Mrs. Pepper for starting this thread -- and kudos to everyone who's posted so far. They are all quite lovely.

mrs. pepper

I absolutely adore this!!! What everyone has posted so far is great; I love them all. Especially yours, PyroGlitch. The one with Ron in it cracked me up! I wish I could be creative like that!

~Sweet

hey ! found this one at thedarkarts.org. it's by TeaWithVoldy , and it's called "sorrows" . this is in harry's point of view, btw. brace yourselves. it's quite long.

A watered drop glides silently down the glass case
that separates my soul from the world I am thrusted.
Trapped with a heavied heart,
I watch the tiny tears fall from the silvered sky.
Like it somehow knows the sorrows I keep hidden,
crying for me...
Bearing my burdens.
As I have not the strength to shoulder them myself.
I haven't the courage to weep alone,
to let my nightmares mix with my tears.
Because without her, I am like a souless sheath forever lost.
For the sorrows I keep
are shallowly buried beneath the mark etched into my skin
from a past I am eagerly dreading to know...
The past I fleetingly recall;
and all I know is that a maternal protection
saved me from the hungry hand of Death's desire.
Only to have me wanting its dreaded sleep,
to escape the miserable trap in which I am now caged.
My universe is bursting with these terrible thoughts.
And a night, a night of infinite blackness surrounds my depths...
edging ever slowly forward to my madness.
Yes, I can see the night pressing apon me...it's weight crushing ... it is waiting;
hungry to engulf me into its belly.
I turn my eyes away from the silent tears,
and all I want to do now is to scream...
To scream a shattering breath that will break the glass that bounders me.
For I want to tell this magical earth on which my tragic feet tread on to bury within it the pain I feel...
to vanquish the sorrows I keep...
to let them disappear like a simple spell I have conquered.
But it will never be.
It will never be so...
I am a tragic hero,
destined for a haunted heart.
And perhaps it is for the greater good...
but I do not yet know.
As those I dearly trust guard me fiercely with their eyes.
Protect me from the answers I yearn for -
the truth in the hearts of a chosen few
like my sorrows remain in my heart.
I feel as though all the struggles in my past and of my present
is of my own doing.
The torture is unbearable brought on by dark memories.
I am trapped in a cycle of nightmares that never cease ...
and the tide of fear is rising, in me and in many.
And soon death will once again be victorious.
Already, few have been taken... like the blood of my rival,
innocently stained on my hands.
for it should have been me alone to face my demons...
but who was I to know the future.
It still haunts me,
in consciousness and in dreamy boundaries.
I am only a child so deprived,
wondering when his next step will be his last.
When will it ever end?
When will it?
Until that needed light warms me...
the darkness creeps forward.
As my eyes wonder maddeningly over every inch of the silvered sky.
I realise I need a person,
a soul to tell me all will be right,
For a girl with hair like that of a ferrelled child
to rest her head against mine and whisper three tiny words.
I...love... you.
And only then will one little sorrow,
deep in my heart disappear into the troubled air around me...
like sorcery.

so...what do you guys think?

mrs. pepper

and here's another one by TeaWithVoldy . found it at astronomytower.org, and it's another long poem, this time in hermione's pov.

sweet eyes

Oh sweet eyes,
sights of your dreams
are full of despair hidden deep within its black tunnels.
Yet they shine like crystal orbs with the light of those you touch,
and warm you with hope long forgotten.
oh sweet lonely eyes,
you turn away from people's heartless pities.
Hungry for love that is true... for affection you struggle
with all your strength to remember.
And when nightmares reign, and darkness spreads and parental yearnings would never cease.
You look beyond where stars lie and wish for a moments peace.
Oh sweet lovely eyes,
the mirrors of your tortured soul,
don a colour that many, like I lust.
For a drop of its pure essence would make magic spark.
Oh sweet seductive eyes.
No need for a charm cast by a wooden stick,
your eyes always seem to do the trick.
Its natural elegance speaks your innocence which those near passionately protect.
Oh sweet eyes,
flawed beyond what others see.
Beauty is only skin deep.
Glass windows case them.
More precious than a coloured canvas.
For they were a gift from mother's blood.
The only emblem of maternal love you can remember her by.
Other than her protective touch she provided, that dark night, where spirits cry.
Oh sweet, turbulent eyes,
growing wise.
They closet your hidden talents,
but they are the visions of a life some wish to demise for their own ambitious powers.
Oh sweet, wounded eyes.
I know you are becoming stronger as the years pass by,
facing every challenge that clout your way.
To some they seem like glorious adventures,
but to your eyes they are none other than tormenting nightmares
which repeat in vicious cycles.
Oh sweet, famous green eyes.
Colour of envy some close to you suffer.
Oh how you wish to express truth to a brother's ignorance,
that the happy moments that appeared in your life happened before death striked twice.
And all you are most fearful of, other then eternal sleep.
Is the lose of a friendship you long to forever keep.
Oh sweet, downtrodden eyes
your Humanity can be felt by a moments touch.
The warmth of you suffered heart
trickles tears in my soul.
But your green circles of eternal light harbour Anger
at peoples blind chatter.
I feared those times when truth could not break persecution against you.
I thought you would slip away from my embrace,
forever torn by your innocent mistakes,
and always hoping that man would understand you.
Yet, to no avail they did not.
Nevertheless... I do ... I comprehend the beauty that is you..
Sweet, sparkling orbs,
bright stars to my soul.
Open your lids, don't let blindness from the years of heartache
steal you away from me.
Oh sweet, heartbreaking eyes,
I, Hermione Granger, imply.
Just let yourself open up to me.
And, only then will our souls forever intertwine,
because with me... your peace will be found.
Oh sweet, sweet courageous eyes.
My prince,
my knight,
my hero in gold and red.
Know this and now, if only you open your eyes to me,
you will see... I am your true love, eternally.

okay, reviews/comments needed!!!

mrs. pepper

Well, I finally have it - it's untitled and is also in another story *ducks the tomatoes that are thrown at her* but oh, well. Anyway, this is my take on Hermione's feelings during OOTP - trust me, I know what it feels like.

It happens
It happens
Once and each and every time; it burns
The soul cannot go unrested
for it is unsheltered
and broken apart
and bleeding and
hurting
And the truth still stands honest.
unrequited love
will never be returned

Okay, so it was short, and not to mention very angsty/depressing, but hey, I'm an angst freak. Sue me for that And of course, Hermione's love will soon be reciprocated - granted Harry realizes who's been right in front of him all along/has always been there in the 6th book or later (I'm hoping.). Yeah, I know, I'm optimistic A geek can always dream, right? *sighs*

wow..wow!!more of poem..please!!

@Mrs. Pepper: about your poem... it one of best yet!!

heehee ! i wish i could say "thanks", HarHermlove4ever , but i didn't write that poem. i just found it. or was that what you meant?

btw, i am still searching for more poems to recommend. and Sarcastic Dragonette , that was beautiful. i love angsty stuff too.

mrs. pepper

very nice poetry and other stuffs you guys.. well, maybe i'll post one some other time... i have a test tomorrow and I'm not very creative at the moment

Wow! Those songs/poems are awesome! I love them!

This isn't H/Hr inspired but it a song that perfectly fits H/Hr---It's "Hero" by Enrique Iglesias...awesome for H/Hr---here are the lyrics:

This poem isn't mine, it was written by Theresa J. Vandermeer, and it's called One thought to help. I give the real author full credit. The poem is in a book called Angst!. I think it sums up H/Hr pretty well... if not, then I read it wrong...*Shrugs*

I have another poem . . . yay. *sarcastic* Anyway, I wrote this a year ago . . . it's personal to me and even though doesn't neccessarily pertain to Hermione, I'm posting it up here anyway, 'cause in my opinion, it does apply to Hermione. Did that make any sense? I just changed the words a bit and took out some of the lines so that it's more Hermioneish (and besides, some of the lines didn't apply to her anyway). This is just some of her reflective thoughts of her feelings about Harry and Harry in general - post GOF/post OOTP, your choice. It's pretty sappy, but oh well *quits rambling* If anyone wants to read the full, unedited version though, let me know. Or PM me.

To The Days

From the first day that we met in first year

To the day that I fell in love with you

To the days when you made me laugh with your jokes

To the days when you just plain made me mad and laugh at the same time

To the day when I realized that you and I

were a couple that happened once in a blue moon

I loved Letters To One Another!
That was so funny! I loved how she thought it was Harry and then it turned out to be Ron and then Harry got his hands on the letter.

Err . . . just asking, are we allowed to post poems about just Harry or Hermione? 'Cause I have a poem written from Harry's point of view . . . there's very very very very very very very (okay, I think you guys get the point) subtle H/H in it, though. So I don't know. Could you please check, Mrs. Pepper?

Here's My Poem, I hope you like it,

Death can never break us apart

But one can tear us all

We have to stand even with tears running down

We have to live for who we miss

Life can never be forever

It can make you change your mind

Nightmares every night

I Will Be There To Hold You Tight

Keep You Warm and Hopeful

Love Can Be Disasterous

But if you Believe In True Love

It Can Conquer Over Evil

It Can Conquer Over Everything But Us

Murder Is How Your Life Will End Or It Will Begin With Me

If You're Gone

I'll Always Think Of You

In My Heart

In My Soul

Forever

I Love You Harry James Potter

Forever

Forever

As Long As The Sun Shines

Forever

As Long As The Stars Twinkle

Forever

I Mean It, I'll Love You Forever


It's Called Forever


Hugs and Snogs,

harryloveshermione1999

Wow these are so beautiful...so H/Hr...I love them! Keep posting some more up!

Lovely, lovely poem, harryloveshermione1999 Could you use it in a ficlet? Pretty please? *grovels on her knees and begs*

I like Gravity of Love by Enigma. That's a good song. I know a couple of poems. I'll back to you on that.

That is a good song...and Natalie made a great video of it too. Sigh...H/Hr is beautiful, isn't it?

Two more for the H/H crowd - and the first one, “Brown,” was also in the R/L song/poem thread, just so you’d know *cowers* It pertains to Harry and Hermione, though. In my opinion anyway. And this is in Harry’s POV - about Hermione’s eye color and Hermione herself.

Brown

An earthy hue
Calm, soothing, relaxing
Home
The color that’s warm and friendly
and the most beautiful color of all.
No glitter here; no shimmer or cover-up
It’s all natural.
Brown drives you home
It stands out in a crowd
The color that’s been the fascination of many artisans
and the subject of many of their works
The color that’s so lovely to look at
and yet at the same time
bring about bittersweet emotions
There’s many shades – so wonderful to look at
amber, bronze, gold, mahogany, chestnut, chocolate, coffee, russet, dark, light –
They all blend into one –
and that’s the beautiful color of brown.

And that’s how I felt when I looked into the mesmerizing brown that’s your eyes:
I felt as if I was coming home at last.

Uh, if this reminds you of Apologies (by romulus lupin) - all I have to say is that it was coincidental.

This one is in Hermione’s point of view about Harry’s eye color and Harry himself - my last eye color poem, just so you’d know And I know it’s weird/sentimental - I like it anyhow

Green

Enchanting, mesmerizing,
deep enough to draw you in
into its depths
and abyss that goes on forever.

It’s the only other color of nature
besides brown
Splashes of it add life and vigor
to everything and everyone that’s around it
and makes everything come alive (not literally, mind you)
And every shade and hue of it somehow makes the world more brighter and full of life than before
That’s the same with your eyes
The color varies from time to time, depending on your mood
yet every time, makes everything seem more brighter than it already is

Emerald, whenever you’re angry or irritated
Light, whenever you’re happy
A subdued hue, sometimes
Dark forest, whenever you’re reflecting or sad
Bright, whenever you’re excited about something
Jade, whenever you’re mischievous
Sea, whenever you’re confused
Bottle, whenever you’re playful

And to think that it all began one day in September.
It all began that day.
I lost myself in your eyes then
And to this day, whenever I see you
I’ll never regret it at all.

There, I’m done

This is a quick, cruddy poem. I came up with it pretty quick, so if it doesn't make sense, I'll understand. I guess there are many ways to look at it, but, obviously, it has to do with Harry and Hermione. For me, it is from Hermione's POV, though, it could be Harry's POV when he was in his 2nd year, holding Hermione's hand. Maybe I'll add more to it later or edit it or something.


Like the sun sinks into the ocean,
Your heart sinks into mine,
And though we grow older,
My love for you grows in that time.

I shall always walk by your side,
No matter where my life goes,
I'll hold your hand if you hold mine,
So I can heal your pains and sorrows.

Even if I'm just too shy,
And if I never tell you how I feel,
I'll give you a hug if you hug back,
Just so you know I'm real.

Oh, don't use my poem, don't use it. I've been editing it a little.

soccerchick, that was beautiful, not cruddy. I loved it!


Hugs and Snogs,

harryloveshermione1999

Oh, thanks harryloveshermione1999 I really didn't think it was that good because of the fact that it only took me about 2-5 minutes to type up. And it doesn't rhyme like most of the random poems I come up with. Thank you so much for your compliment though, it really made my day.

Yeah, soccerchick, it's a lovely poem So Harry and Hermione-ish (if that made any sense whatsoever). It really is lovely, though. You and harryloveshermione1999 should submit it to HOAF (just go to the Idea! thread in this forum - it's the one that was started by sunshinebelle and has an amazing number of replies - if you have no idea what I'm talking about), definitely Never think that your poems suck, okay? 'Cause they're lovely and so pumpkin pie-ish *can't help but hug both soccerchick and harryloveshermione1999 *

Here's a poem that came literally out of nowhere - it's in, obviously, Hermione's POV about Harry and his love of flying (in general). And I know it's weird and mushy/sentimental. (Can you blame me? )

To See You Fly

To see you fly
is the most beautiful thing ever
(not to mention the most amazing sight to see)
I fervently wish that it was me up there in the air along with you
If it weren’t for my acrophobia
I would fly with you
whether it was to nowhere
or at a Quidditch game
or just flying in the sky
the only place where you feel free from your troubles
where you feel is the only place that you can get away from your problems
To see you fly
so high, so grateful, so natural, so alive
like a pro
Away from everything that’s troubling you
and just flying, for the mere sensation of it all –
of just being free
just flying on that one sensation
is lovely to see
The way your eyes lit up
like shining twin emeralds
the most gorgeous shade there ever could be, in my opinion
To see you fly
soaring, swerving
is really a sight to see.
And then when I tell you
what it’s like, seeing you fly
You simply smile that smile of yours
and say,
“You have no idea how right you are, Hermione.”

After you somehow catch the Snitch and win the game
and the crowd around you has dispersed
leaving only you and me
together
alone
You smile at me and say,
“Thanks for being there, Hermione.”

That's my bit.

For lack of creativity, I can't put up any poems, but I remember listening to this Switchfoot song called "Learning to Breathe" for the first time in months and thinking about H/Hr:

Here's my Pumpkin Pie poem

*Hermione's point of view*

I, a person, not even a fullblood Witch,

I, someone, aiming as high as you for the snitch,

I, who takes a risk but not always dares,

I, who is by your side, but always cares,

And you, the soft word that is spoken by my lips,

You, a person, I love from toe to fingertips,

You, who stands up brave in front of us all,

You, who I will support even when you fall

and times, when you gave up courage somehow,

I kept on supporting as I do now,

Times, when I was scared I was going to die,

you saved me, because it's pumpkin pie


*Harry's point of view*

I, someone, known by so many,

I, a person, to survive without hurting any,

I, who gets into situations which dangerous,

I, who gets supported by you so generous,

and you, the only one I want to ever keep close,

you, someone, I love from head to toes,

you, who knows how to say everything with grace,

you, who I know is with me at any place

And times, when I had the feeling I was lost,

You kept on supporting at any cost,

times, when I was scared you were going to die,

I saved you, because It's pumpkin pie




and, what do you think of it?

trikymia . . . that was absolutely wonderful. Absolutely lovely. Brings a warm, fuzzy, comforting feeling to your soul *sigh* Ah, pumpkin pie.

And here's another poem (I credit Jack for giving me the idea) - a bit sad/nostalgic, but yeah . . nice twist at the end, I suppose

Ravens

Every evening they appear
black, shiny, sleek
smooth flyers
who glide though the air with ease
And I can’t help but be reminded of him then.
Their eyes glow with an inner, knowing, light
full of life
like his was
and as they circle around in the air
I can’t help but wonder
what gives them that inner strength?
That inner vulnerable shell?
like his was?
As they continue to circle around in the air
I feel a calm, quiet, voice answer behind me:
“Yes.”

And then the next thing I know, I’m clinging furiously to him
not willing to let go
not even for a single minute
and I whisper to him,
“you’re back.”
My heart’s finally at peace
once I meet his eyes then
So green, so shining
so full of love
so full of an inner light, an inner strength that’s deep within him
so lovely
So like a raven’s.

That's my bit
