My mild mannered spirit
hides in plain sight.
Duel identity leading separate lives;
the world see's me flying
while I secretly love you.
My tattered cape, my shield
against the world;
bullet proof heart
against those that mean harm.
I protect you from afar,
even love you.
A fortress full of solitude
that shelters enduring love.
As powerful as I am,
withstanding piercing pain
and a million penetrating bullets;
my sweet soul mate,
my hero
you are my kryptonite.
I will linger behind and be your superhero
and live loving you as you love another.
