By K.E. Stanton

I'm the girl who loves Sméagol 

Who believes he could've been good

Because we're all broken people

But we'd turn if we knew we could


I'm the one who loves Vader

Who hoped in the man under a mask

Because, see, we all have haters

But it's the goodness within that lasts


I rooted for Draco Malfoy

The minute he approached the scene

For though he seemed fruitless and coy

There was a boy under the seams.


I'm the girl who loved Scar

And was heartbroken when he died

Yes, he took his schemes too far

But don't we all sometimes?


I related to Maleficent

Despite her villainous ways

Because she taught me that love deficient

Causes your heart to fray.


I'm the one who loves Joker

Even though he is insane

Because under all our mediocre

We really are the same.


I'm the girl who loves Davy Jones

And wants him to regain his heart

For we're all scared of feeling alone

When love rips us apart.


I'm the girl who loves their darkness

Because I know it will be all right

For only in the blackness

Can you truly see the light.


I'm the girl who loves villains

You never know what you might see

They're not too far ridden,

Neither are you and me.


Love is not forbidden,

Nor less worth a try

For the ones that we call villains

Are the ones we left behind.
