Sometimes it was too
Hard to be with all those
Evil people, even though she was supposed to be one of them
What could she do except nod
Along with them, laugh with them, pretend
Nothing was wrong and pretend that she loved and
Trusted them all because
Evil people did evil things but she
Didn't want to do evil things, so why was she here with them
Nobody really understood the Slytherin house, not
One single person in the whole school, and
Things didn't change in all her years at
Hogwarts, she was forced to just
Imagine a life where she didn't have to be mean and
Negative just because the other boys and
Girls around her were like that
Trust me, they said, and she told them she did, she said she would trust them and
Only them, forever, because they were so similar and such good friends
Don't be so nice, they said, and she pretended to listen when they said the nice were
Oblivious to the really important things in life, and that only they understood
When they did terrible things, she forced a laugh and she knew she was an
Idiot to do it, because people didn't realise it was an act,
They didn't understand how much pressure she was under, they didn't know
How hard it was to be such a horrible person when she wanted to be nice
Too many times she called someone names when she really wanted to be
Happy and kind and nice and friends but she spent so much time being
Evil that after a while, she stopped holding on to who she was
Meant to be and just let herself turn into one of them
