Just a Phase

Life has a way of wearing you down. The people you love inevitably leave you, leaving behind burdens you're left to carry alone. Every ending carries its own sorrow, just as every beginning is tinged with a bit of joy. It's the way of things. I've decided to write this because I need to leave behind my story before it's too late. Others didn't get the chance, but I will make sure their stories are told, along with mine. My name is Severus Snape, and this is the truth of what has happened and what it means. Listen closely./p>
