Author's Note – I just saw HBP today and oh my Dark Lord was Draco amazing! I have such a respect for Tom Felton now. And thanks to Draco Malfoy, I have tones of new writing ideas, including this poem. By the way, I don't own Harry Potter but if someone offered me the rights to Draco, I would be pretty happy.
Something Special
I've always wanted to be one of them – the nameless, faceless fools in the halls
No one knows them and no one really cares to
They are invisible
And nothing special
They live their lives from day to day, no pressure, no despair
No one really cares for them so no one places expectations upon them
Like a bounty
No one asks them to do impossible tasks
Because they know that they are invisible
And nothing special
No one tells them that they are the "Chosen One" chosen by the Dark Lord
And Him alone
No one tells them that they can do whatever He asks, even if it is impossible
Because it isn't like they have the strength
Or the courage
To do it
But rather they live without hopes, without expectations, without the constant pain
They don't lie awake at night
Hoping they won't screw up
And let everyone down
Let Him down.
But as everyone says
I am not just anyone
I am something special
Rather I want to be
Or not.
