I don’t wear a cape.
I don’t wear leggings
Or my underwear outside of my clothes.
I don’t fly.
I don’t see through walls.
I don’t bend things with my mind.
I don’t talk to fish.
I don’t have super strength.
I do wear what I want to
Whether it be skinny jeans,
Baggy clothes,
Or something in between.
I do listen.
I do care.
I do love.
I do cry.
I do have a heart.
I’m the kid in the corner of the room
Made fun of for being different.
I’m the popular kid
Who always tries to fit in
Even when I know it’s wrong.
I’m the weird kid who saves frogs.
I’m the adults who still secretly believe in faeries
And the children who find themselves too old to.
I can be anyone around you.
I may not mean much in the big picture
But I can be a superhero in my own mind.
