To be a villain

You didn't need to have a costume

You didn't need to have an evil laugh

You didn't need to go around destroying

everything around you

You were the perfect villain

Disguised

Hiding in the shadows

Biding your time

To be a villain,

you didn't need to break

millions of hearts

You just had to break

one

I've read so many books

with villains in them

but none of the books showed me

how to get rid of a villain like

you

None of the books told me

that even after you defeat a villain,

the scars remain

The damage done to your heart,

your head,

the damage stays the same

And you never really forget

about the villain
