Let Me Be The Superhero or Somebody Else

In this darkest hour,

I hear the shout and cried,

I hear the pain,

it’s like a blood war, tears are everywhere…

but I just could hear…

I couldn’t give my hands for help,

I was trap into the fire,

have my body too weak,

but seeing my friend and relatives lives in their last seconds,

I felt so worthless….

so useless…..

why I were not within them??

I wish I were the superhero,

when you shout then I’ll be there…

I wish I were the superhero,

when you shout then I came and heal your pain…

I wish I were the superhero,

so I could be your savior and never saw you in trouble…

but I’m not…

I felt so worthless to trap in this dark edge,

just wanna jump everytime I came to the end!

just wanna escape anytime I feel weak!

just wanna lost anytime my courage disappear!

I wish I were the superhero,

but I’m not…

I’m not coming from kryptonite and contain the neutron,

I didn’t even get bite by the spider,

I didn’t even look good in the mirror!!

I didn’t even deserve for a bit of mercy and luck!

I didn’t even….

I wish I were the superhero,

but I’m not!!

I was the first candle lost her light,

I do hope lighten the sky, but I was burnt less than second,

then should I wish to be somebody else??

just to make me feel better and leave this burdened

just to ensure I had so much better option?

and finally you have no chance to judge me and think me worst??

I do not have wings or roots,

so I could not fly nor stand on the earth,

I wish I were the superhero, but I’m not!

I wish to be somebody else..

so I could start to pretend

that I never get hurt for this inconvenience,

that I never been so serious thinking of you,

that I never been so sad and never been scream that bad!
