Alone, but never Broken

Am I truly the villain?

Will I ever be free of my scars?

One thing that I do know is that I will never be the hero

I will never save a person,

Nor will I ever be good

I believe I am evil;

I believe it is intrinsically etched into my soul

For what can I be but evil?

I am wickedness at its peak,

And weakness at its prime

I will never be the bright hero,

Only ever the dark villain

I will ruin others,

And I will destroy myself

I couldn't be happy hurting myself;

I could not be grateful no one else was hurt.

I wanted more, and I sinned

I sinned, only for others to be hurt

My family paid for my sins, hurting each day they love me

My family may say they love me.

But they are running out of reasons to keep evil loved.

One day, I will die.

That day, I will rejoice.

Rejoice, at my freedom.

And that day, I will also shame myself.

I will shame myself for making others suffer.

Am I truly the villain?

There is only one person who can answer that question.

And I have found the answer to be yes.

I am the villain.
