Self-Worth
Sometimes I ask myself why
I put myself through this shit
Just for the love of a guy
Is it even worth it?
I put myself through this pain
and he still curses my name
this shit's not even fair
And love's not even worth it.
I'm worth more than this
How do I deserve this?
I've been treated like shit.
He's not even worth it.
Love is all bullshit
I'm worth so much more than it
I'm above it.
And yet I love him.
There was a surprising amount of anger and grief emitting from this short poem, he the words that stood out the most to Harry was the use of male pronouns.
Draco Malfoy was in love it a guy. He was gay.
Harry didn't have anything against that since he himself was bisexual, but it came as a surprise that the Slytherin Prince would be interested in other boys. If he was still interested in anyone at this point. The message of this poem was so clear. Malfoy was declaring himself above love. He'd had his heart hurt one too many times it seemed. Did this mean Draco was going to let his love die?
Harry didn't know why the idea of that caused him so much pain.
