If I were a superhero and had any power in the world I would have... Super Speed, anything you need I could be there in a FLASH! No second thought...no maybe or not, I would be there super fast.
Though, that's too obvious.
No, I would pick... Super Hearing, that would be my choice, I would tune it ONLY to your voice and know the moment you were in distress. That would be good I guess...
No, not that either.
I would pick... Super Flight, so that every night I could take you to the stars (though the air might be tight) it would be super right.
No. I would pick... Super Linguist, so I can speak every word, noun and verb into your ear in a feeble attempt to dry up each tear.
No, I would pick time travelΒ Β and go to the moment you were first sad. I would have super vision to see you on the days you are glad. Telepathy to know how you feel. Super strength to move ANY mountain... when you need healed.Β Β
Forgive me for this, it may be a bit extreme. What you need is not a superhero by anyway shape or means ...what you need is a hug.
Yes, that's it! If I were a superhero and had any power in the world...it would be Super Hug. I would hug you so tight till all doubt has left your mind every night. I would hold you in my arms till you knew your worth. No, I can't save the Earth with a hug, I can't change everyone's life with my embrace.
But just in case ...I will start with you, I will hug you regardless. In my arms your petite body will be cocooned till the sun turns in to the moon. I will hold your neck while you head rests on my chest. I will put in CHECK... every thought, pain and neglect with the only power, enchantment and medicine that I posses... My hug.
I wrote this poem when I saw a friend with lined skin and all that was within me wanted to grab her and hold her tight and never let go.
