A letter from Gregory to Vincent, as a soldier to his lover. Greg doesn't know how much time is left for him, but he wants Vince to know some things. Written for the "You're my perfect candybar" contest for Slytherin's Valentine's Day 2011 on Hex.

This is a sestina. Snape/Lily, unrequited. It's an ode to Severus Snape, basically.
