I Try To Be

by Insarai Arys

Harry’s thoughts on what people who are supposed to do, say and think really think as to him and his actions.

I try to be

I try to be understanding to others

Yet no others are understanding to me

I try to be ever truthful

But no one is with me

I try to be good and merciful

Yet no one is good or merciful to me

I try to patient and grateful

But no one is either with me

Everyone things I am god-like

The gift will only stretch so far

Everyone wants an answer

I don't know all the questions

Everyone wants a miracle from me

I can't work miracles or great wonders

Everyone expects an all amazing person

I'm just an unusual person

Everyone expects me to move mountains

I am just too small

Everyone wants things I can't do

I can't produce something out of nothing

Everyone wants perfection

I'm never going to be perfect

Everyone sees what they want to see

I just want someone to see me
