Severus Snape

Mr. Potter, Our new celebrity

What a nuisance he is

Always going out of bounds, causing trouble

He feels as if he can break any rules without being punished

He is so foolish

Stupid, Potter

Dumbledore favors him

It is so obvious

He always believes his stories

What is so special about Potter?

Sure there is the whole prophecy thing

But just because he has an unknown power does not mean he deserves extra treatment

Why does everyone like him so much?

He is so brave, despite what I tell myself

I know he will defeat the Dark Lord

Of course, seeing as I am a spy

The Dark Lord believes I am doing everything to kill Potter

I have to try to act as if I hate him when really I just envy him

We are very similar actually

Both of us do not have parents, killed at the hand of the Dark Lord

We both came to Hogwarts alone, hurting constantly

But the main difference is that Potter has friends

I never did have friends, as many times as I tried to make them

Potter has people who care for him; I do not

I may act unjustly toward him

But it is really just my feelings for his father coming out

I was always jealous of him, as I am of Potter

I do not think I will ever be able to truly care for Potter

But I do not hate him as many think

I am truly grateful that he has accepted his fate to save everyone, including me

He may not like me, and I may not like him

But I am thankful that he is here

Because I would not be here if it weren't for him

So many times before I have thought of ending my life

But Potter gave me hope and a reason to live

Now, go away before I hex you to the point that you are unrecognizable

Please, Please, Please REVIEW!! It really does not take that long! Please just leave a short note! PLEASE!
