Villain

A shadow lurking, in the darkest night, With eyes that gleam, and a sinister light. Their heart is cold, their touch a blight, A villain's presence, a chilling sight. They crave the power, the twisted might, To rule the world, with iron fist tight. Their schemes unfold, with cunning and guile, Leaving destruction, in their wake for a while. They wear a mask, of charm and deceit, But beneath the surface, their malice is fleet. Their words are poison, their motives unclear, They sow discord, feeding on fear. But even villains, have a story to tell, A reason for their darkness, a place where they fell. Perhaps a pain they carry, a wound that won't mend, Their twisted path, where their journey did bend. Yet in the face of their evil, we must stand strong, To fight for justice, where right belongs. For even the darkest hearts, can find redemption's light, And choose a path of goodness, to make things right.
