Goodbye Severus! - I`m raising my wand for you.

My intense need to sob got fulfilled when news told me Alan Rickman had passed. Potter was the first book i picked when i began dreaming, dreaming through books, Snape was the first man whom i started dis-liking, from my deepest trenches, Snape was the first man who taught me that your intentions are more important than your actions. After all this time and through the 7 books, he got a permanent place within my being.

It saddens me that the person who personified Snape is dead, Snape was killed in the books and i grieved, but by then i had grown up - i knew my favorite version of reality was a dream. Today it suffered another blow, it seems someone i knew personally and spoke to is dead - maybe Snape was someone I talked to when i did an ugly thing with good intentions.

Snape was my hero and that hero is no more today and so i`m crying in my little corner. The world, somebody wrote, is the place we prove real by dying in it

To the man who died - be at peace Alan and thank you!
