Seven years old I’m playing outside A girl I’ve been next door to for two years Wears a cape like mine Red Red like the blood that screams As it desperately tries to force its way to my brain A metal slide I used to have Holds my cape prisoner Struggling dreams of if it would look like I was flying If only it flew up and caught the wind Instead of sink down and grasp my neck Her mouth is open Tears in her eyes I can’t hear her screams Over the helpless gasping of mine As vision begins to fade a silver flash escapes the backdoor My grandma darts down the stairs Eyelids descend like time in an hourglass My body rises to the heavens I think this is it                                                          “Grandma?”

Stronger than superman, Smarter than iron man, Braver than batman, He who holds the key to my heart. You catch me when I fall, You hold my hand and lead me out of the darkness, An old,bitter and lonely soul, You transformed to a new,sweet and happy soul, This I say from the bottom of my heart , A model I look up to you as. My sunlight in daytime, My moonlight in night time, I never want to loose you , Not in this would or the next. Can you feel where the wind blows, Can you feel it flowing through, No day goes by and a thought of you does my mind not go through, Can't live without my hero. Whenever I need someone to talk too, You're there, Whenever I need someone to hold on too, You're there, You're someone i never wish to loose, You're someone who owns a special place in my heart, Forever I cherish you deep in my soul, MY HERO....
