Empathy for most villains
seeing their
Pain
Hurt
Sadness
Struggle
Hopelessness
Wondering, is that a precursor to becoming one

A supposed dark essence devoid of light.
But not all hero's are draped in light.
Can villains also be a hero?
Or have they swam so far into the abyss
Drowning their humanity
Drowning the light in eternal darkness

Villains are made
Not born
true?
Is our destiny 500 years old
Written in stars for greatness and grandness
Or does it change little by little
As the living make choices unaligned
Affecting the timelines
Requiring more and more from the next generation
No germination
Just constant demand
Of riches and wealth
Is it possible to heal that and more
A mere person

Thrown to the wolves
Thrown to the wild
Naked
Weaponless
No strings
No puppet master
