I was walking through the halls of Hogwarts.
I walked into the bathroom.
I couldn't see why anyone thinks I'm special.
I'm a freak. Everyone told me so.
I am worthless.
I am a burden.
So why do the people here see me differently?
I studied myself in the mirror.
I am nothing special.
No one could ever love me.
That is okay, I don't think I know what love is.
I can't love.
And I am crazy.
And I am worthless.

I'm stupid. That's all I've ever heard.
I'm a freak.

He is better than me.

I am nothing special.
No one should love me.
That is okay, no one has since they died.
No one will love me.

I am worthless.
The first is Tom and the second Harry. Tom was always seen as this very attractive and charismatic person. The life he lived at the orphanage would never had told him that. He comes to Hogwarts and suddenly people are interested, I personally think he would need time to mull over this. Harry comes from a similar situation. No one loved him at the Dursley's, he was always the freak or the burden. Dudley always came first. Now he comes into the Wizarding world and is famous? I think he would have had to have some adjustment time. Until Halloween he just has Ron as a friend but everyone is judging him/ I think he would have been very insecure at first. So in other words Harry and Tom are not as different as they may seem.
UPDATE: I changed it from looks because some people pointed out stuff and I realized it was off. Instead it ties in more to my other Tom fic Making Myself Fit In.
So please let me know if and why or why not you liked it. I do take your suggestions serioulsy and everyone loves a little praise.
