I didn't want to end like this

I didn't want to end up

Alone,

Lost,

Torn.

What came over me when

I shunned my old life

And took up another?

What did I accomplish?

What did I earn?

I hate this body

I hate this life

I hate being hated

I hate being feared

But most of all

I hate hating myself.

I didn't want to take

So many innocent lives

I didn't want to ruin

The future of Muggles

And wizards alike.

These horrid red eyes

This morbid snake-like nose

This rancid breath,

That malicious call

To a creature so full of

Wickedness,

Iniquity,

Sin.

I didn't want to end like this

I didn't want to end up

Alone,

Lost,

Torn.
