Villain

I want to say something
But I can not
I made a vow
To a person close to me
That I would not say a word
Not let this get to me

TO fight the urge
To be the villain they wish I was
To just show the harsh reality that I can be
A person that is not meant to be fucked with
One that can shatter their little words with a single word
To prove that I am not just a black sheep among the herd

To show what it means to be hurt
That I am not as low as the dirt
I can be the villain
I can be the devil
I can burn you faster than you can say a word
I can burn you before you have seen it coming

But I refuse to be that way
I will keep my vow
I will keep my word
I will not fuck something good up
Like what has already been done
I will not be defeated

I will stand my ground
I will keep my defenses up
Refuse to take out the sword
Refuse to put on the armor
Not give you that satisfaction
Life has moved on, haven't you

What is more important in my life
My friends or my family
My happiness or that of others
Pride or friendship
To just move past this
And just remember the past for what it was
