The Beauty and the Beast

The Beauty and the Beast:
https://youtu.be/8w5AvnsvH44
There is a villain in every story.
The wicked witch of the west,
The wicked witch of the east,
The evil step mother if you choose me as second choice.
A monster ,a beast.
What does the villain look like?
Some people may ask.
It doesnot always have a black cap,
Or a witch ‘s broom.
Or a big and scary mask.
I have a villain of my own.
But  she’s kind  of  hard to see.
She has really a good disguise.
She looks a super heroine.
Who  love to live a happy life with her siblings and mom.
Who  help the poor and wounded people.
Who sing a song for her bright coming future.
Tell me what I need according to my idealism.	
And tell me what I will get according to your ideas.
You bring out my scars.
My sadness, fear and aggression 
You cause me a lot of envy.
And leave me with depression.
And deprive me of my confidence.
Take away of my self esteem 
Cause me to fear Judgement.
And make me yell and scream 
You taunt me with your words.
Like this is some kind of game.
But when it comes down to it.
There is no one else to blame.
This villain is not the creature.
Or a devil sent from the hell 
It is made by man himself.
There is a villain in every story.
A statement that is true.	
But how do you kill the monster.
When it lives inside of you?
