I Am Draco Malfoy

You say I'm the same as him. I'm not. I will never be like him. I will not let that happen. Do we really look that much alike? Do we really act the same? But I am not him! Why can't you see that? I will never be like him. And you label me.. the same way I labeled you - by your background - by your blood. And look, you're doing the same thing to me. Just because I'm his son does NOT mean I am like him.
You think you're so smart, you think you're so brave, you think you're so cool.. but you know nothing about me, you haven't had to see the things I've seen, and you certainly haven't had to fight the same way I have to get to where I am. Come to think of it, have you ever even had to fight for anything at all? I mean, sure there's always those little scraps you get into now and then but have you ever had to fight for your life? Well of course you have.. but not against some one who is supposed to love you. Love? Yes, what do I know of that word. Absolutely nothing.
That is what makes us different, you see. Not the fact that I'm richer than you or better than you or anything.. except that you have someone to love you for no other reason than you are yourself. And I wonder how life would be if I could find something like that. But then, death-eaters don't dream, right?
I have one last thing to say to you. My name is Draco. Not Harry, not Voldemort and certainly not Lucius. I am who I am and I can be no one else.
I am Draco Malfoy. And you have got some learning to do.
~~ AN: I know, makes no sense. But I like it. It sounds like something that he might say if he ever thought about it or got really fed up. So. I hope it was enjoyed. Catch ya later! Ja ne! ~~
