ANSWER: "Hepzibah Smith"
I gave an impression of a melting iced cake,
She was a rich, immensely fat old witch who wore a ginger wig &a brilliant pink set of robes that flowed all around her, which according to Harry, gave her the impression of a melting iced cake..
What I possessed wasn't for anyone to just take.
She had many treasured possessions including fer family heirloom Hufflepuff's cup & Salazar Slytherine's locket that she purchased from Borgin & Burke's ...moreover, she guarded her treasured possessions with pride & care...
Like many others, I couldn't help but be charmed,
Tom Riddle was a charming young gentleman who had already charmed his way through Hogwarts & now as a salesman of Borgin & Burke's he was even more charming ..& not so surprisingly Hepzibah too was charmed by him...
Before the dreadful tragedy hit me, I was barely even alarmed.
She had no idea that Tom Riddle was going to kill her..
I should have known what awaits me,
For I did see a warning in the greedy red gleam.
When Hepzibah showed Tom Riddle the slytherines locket & took it away from him, she saw a greedy red gleam in his eyes that momentarily wiped the big smile off her face..
But I ignored it & so what followed shouldn't have surprised me,
But she ignored it & later Tom killed her.
Finally I became a source of fulfilling not one but two parts of the evil dream.
Tom riddle stole the cup & the locket from her ,both of which became his horcruxes..
Do learn a lesson from my life,
Never show-off when your wealth is rife.
Yup..do learn this lesson from her life :)
