A/N: Samantha is Hermione, David is Draco, the father is Lucius, though I'm sure you would have all figured that out sooner or later. This is a poem, but please don't let that discourage you from reading. It is quite short, despite the chapters. The characters' names have been changed simply because I felt they sounded better in the poem, not to mention I do write poetry for the pleasure of friends as well as myself and many of them would not read this if they knew if were a Harry Potter fan fic. Feedback is greatly appreciated but not required, of course. Enjoy!

Chapter One – Introductions

Samantha was a girl—

Ugly, covered in dirt

Locked in a cage

Beaten occasionally

Stained with blood

Ridden with tears

Her curly brown hair was matted

Her bright blue eyes jaded

With fear, anger, and hate.

David was a pompous rich boy—

His father bought him everything

He needed nothing,

He had it all

He wanted a slave

Saw a dirty girl in a cage

David's father bought Samantha.
