The Evil seeps Through

"Never be so kind, you forget to be clever, Never be so clever, you forget to be kind" - Taylor Swift, Marjorie

I don’t think ill of you,

It’s just the evil seeps through.



I want to lie, I want to be kind.

I want to never share what is truly on my mind.



But then I know that’s not true.

Because that’s what the constant understudy  would do.



There’s no dramatic declaration,

or sudden truth.



It’s just occasionally.

The evil

does

seep 

through.
