A young witch with rusty red hair
From her tattered home to school she'd fare
With a plump snake, not too bright in mind
As Snape's classmate, her path she'd find
Later with Lucius, colleagues they became
While idolizing Gryffindor's golden name
Keeping press clippings, day after day
Until the final battle came her way
When facing Voldemort, her wand held high
An Avada Kedavra lit up the sky
Then others collected her clippings too
As her legend among wizards grew
With awe and wonder, they watched her shine
As she lived more boldly, line by line
Yet few knew of her struggles deep within
The doubt and pain beneath her skin
Like a caged beast she once had been
Short-sighted, hesitant, lost in sin
Through darkness and pain she fought her way
To become the witch we know today

I don’t really read much female lead books but your synopsis is a nice touch 👍
