From The Beginning

If I had met you in the beginning would you still be a villain…
If I had to witness every growing pain, every break down, every time you couldn’t stand alone
Would you be my hero?
If I had known every isolated night you lay on you tear soaked pillow, bloodshot eyes, and a running nose
Would I look at you the same?
If I had known every defining moment when your true self showed through would it be enough to succumb to the light that once showed in your eyes?
Ignoring all of the pain you shared with others because you were so tired of being alone.
So tired of the isolation, the judgment, the glares of those who forget the complexity of every human life, never be lived the same way twice…
You were never my hero…
But
You don’t deserve to be my villain
Why don’t we start over..from the beginning.
