A/N: I found this poem on Reylo Anthology which was based of the poem '25 Lives' by tongari, so credit to them.
AU: Reincarnation
The poem is the italics and bold btw and the reincarnations are a mixture of wizard and muggle AUs.

Tom's POV
The very first time I remember you, you were blonde and don't love me back.
I walk through the ballroom of Malfoy Manor alone, dressed in a black suit, normally I didn't attend parties but Neville swayed me to go to this ball in particular.
Grabbing a glass of white wine, I make my way to a quiet corner to await the night's end so I can go back to my flat when suddenly, a trumpet loudly starts playing, drawing everyone's attention as the four Malfoys go down the stairs.
Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy are well known enough, the media raves about them constantly: about their company and their large donations to charities.
Draco and Hadrian Malfoy, however, are less known.
The twin blonds seem nice enough but throughout the night they seldom make conversation with anyone.
When they walk pass me near the end of the charity ball, their auras seem cold and bored —much like my own— but I don't bother to catch their attention.
I don't want to be here as much as they do.
The next you are brunette and you do.
Walking into Starbucks, I walk to the brown haired and green eyed barista, my boyfriend Harry Potter, and he smiles, "You want your usual, Tom?"
"Of course." I reply, pulling out my wallet
A few minutes later, Harry holds up a drink at the pick up station, "Vanilla frappe for tall, dark and sexy."
I walk up to him and get my drink, placing a kiss on his cheek, "See you later."
"See you later." He agrees, going back to the register and I go to my job at Borgin and Burkes Pawn Shop
After a while I give up trying to guess if the color of your hair means anything, because even if you don't exist I am always in love with you.
I sit in my college history class as my teacher, Dr. Slughorn, talks about the Greek Gods.
"Class, you all have heard of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, and possible a few others like Aphrodite, Ares and Athena. But I'm going begin with the lesser known gods and goddesses like Hecate and Persephone. So I'm going to start with my personal favorite, Hadrian, the god of Bravery, Children and Childbirth and Queen of the Underworld." Several people snickered, "Yes, Hadrian ruled over a very different domain but his story is actually very interesting. Hadrian is the child of Zeus and one of his many mortal wives and his command over bravery is how the stories say he went from being a demigod to a full god. After achieving godhood, he caught the eye of Hades, the God of Wealth and King of the Underworld, —not death like people assume— and his wife, Persephone, the Goddess of Spring and Winter and Queen of the Underworld. And if any of you know Persephone and Hades' story, you know he kidnapped her and she willingly married him because she fell in love with him, but the story repeated again, this time with Persephone and Hades kidnapping Hadrian. For those of you who don't know, Persephone is the daughter of Zeus and Demeter and Hades was the brother of Zeus, so yes, the Greek Gods were extremely incestual. But Hadrian did end up falling in love with Hades and Persephone and they had a polygamist marriage,—like lots of other immortals in this mythology— with the Underworld having a king and two queens. And somehow Hadrian ended up becoming pregnant while Persephone was away during the Spring thus becoming the god of childbirth."
