My favorite type of poem to write is free verse because I think it can be so beautifully written without having a rhyme. Sometimes I think there’s way too much pressure to make the poem rhyme that it totally wrecks it. So, here’s another one of my free verse poems:

The Depths of Draco Malfoy

You don’t know me
You don’t know who I really am
You don’t even want to.

Behind this smirking face is a heart
A heart that is hurt
Torn
Abandoned

How can I expect you to see?
I’ve never been loved.
I will reject anyone who dares to care.

Everyday I walk with my head held high
When I feel like letting it drop
Everyday I push around others
Because it’s the only way I’ve been taught
Everyday I utter crude things
Even though I know it degrades others

You think I’m horrid
Nasty
Evil
But you’ve never tried to look through my disguise
My mask
My pretense.

I cannot expect you to see
I cannot expect you to reach me
I cannot expect you to believe.
I am alone.
