Reality.

Something a certain dear said sparked an awareness in me.
I had always overlooked the fact, but now I realized what power really does to everyone.
If people as decent as him can get snared in a web of corruption,
what, really, can escape it?

--------------------

It is okay to have preferences, everyone does too,
but, to publicize it?
Mayhap you don't mean it verbally, but to show your favoritism to a point
where the subjects themselves feel it,
What more can you say? Is it just?

----------------------

Sometimes I wish you can think on behalf of other people,
I used to think someone else was more stuborn than you,
but the way I see it now, you are more mule-headed than anyone else.
Your opinions are not everything, other people have reasons for theirs too.
Why can't you try to reason, instead of bursting & lashing out every time?

----------------------

And you, I feel like you are siding on her too much,
When she's wrong, stop giving that poker face & say something.
Vice versa, can you please not side on her with everything?
Sometimes, can you think about what others are thinking of your actions too?

---------------------

I really want you guys to be there,
but sometimes, the way you guys take actions are not favorable,
and yet, we have no say in it.
Power, is it a force to be reckoned with?
Does it possess a power so immense than it can crack & divide bonds?

------------------------

It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well.
