The Evil that People Do...

It all starts...
with a look.
An accusation.
A threat.
Telling you that what you see/feel/hear is incorrect.

Looking for others to support them on their lies, they act as if they are something special, a good person.
Sharing with family and friends that you are the crazy one, meanwhile they are the ones with the mental illness.
Blaming exes, employers, and even their own children for everything that is "wrong, bad."

They make excuses for why they do what they do and might even cry and show a bit of empathy.
They cover up, lie and isolate victims so that no one will catch wind of the truth.

They plan to pay back for pre-conceived wrong-doing, for exposing vulnerabilities, for wanting to get away from them.

They come up with clever schemes, pretending to be righteous and honest while lying even to God.

They say, "You aren't going anywhere...you need me...I love you...I still want you...I will change."

But they don't....
They don't
They don't.
