I am James Potter
I am Lily Evans
I wonder why Lily won't date me
I wonder where Potter learned to be so irritating
I hear Lily yell at me every day
I hear Potter constantly badgering me
I see Lily's gorgeous red hair and beautiful green eyes
I see everyone else staring at him begging and laughing at me
I want Lily to love me
I want Potter to stop humiliating me
I am hopelessly in love
I am so tired of him
I pretend that the rejections don't bother me
I pretend that I can't hear him when he calls to me in the halls
I feel so hopelessly devoted to her
I feel like screaming every time he embarrasses me by asking me out again and again
I touch her long red locks when she falls asleep on the common room couch
I touch Potter's face when I slap it away from mine
I worry she won't ever love me
I worry he won't ever stop
I cry when she yells that I'm a pathetic little weasel
I cry when I hear people whispering about 'Potter's girl.' I'm not his girl and never will be
I am so stupid to think she'll ever like me back
I am someone who wants to be known as more than just his
I understand that she hates me
I understand that he has too small a brain to let the fact that I don't like him sink in
I say 'Evans, will you go out with me?'
I say 'Not in a million years'
I dream about her being with me
I dream about being known as LILY EVANS, not Potter's girl
I try to get her to date me
I try to make him leave me alone
I hope she says yes
I hope he stops soon
I am James Potter
I am Lily Evans
