Villain

Villain How did you embrace me in your shadow? Causing this temper rage Starting this fire to spread out of control I was burning all of their bridges; breaking their mold. With the belongings of the riches that were once owned, so I could call them my own. I watched them bleed in desperate needs creating their paths in tears I stole their stones and did I find myself in their falter? Villain How do you become faceless? You are faceless in the outskirts of their crowd and hide in your barren field? They were looking like I had no soul Distant in their approval of where I once was loved Villain How do you dim the pain? It was shone and cast upon my face Illuminating my broken heart the pieces scattered where I once remained Villain How do you give mercy to your soul?
