The Eyes.
Their eyes, they are very telling.
I know what they think of me,
They know what I am capable of.
I sometimes wish they didn’t look a me,
with such disgust.
Sometimes, though, I thrive off it.
Wanting them to know my name
Wanting them to know that they can’t destroy me.
But,
Once they’ve seen me for who they believe I am to be well..
There is no changing their mind.
Right?
I don’t know.
Maybe I’m just a villain.
