Horcrux Star

The night sky, a blanket of night
The cold dripping blood can give us a fright
The dark that’s here is all that's left
The Horcrux Star has committed theft
The sun didn’t rise, the moon didn’t fall
All I was left with was a lump of soil
I saw the darkness producing light
I fought against dark with all my might
That was the last time we had met
The next time we meet I dare to fret
