Meeting your heroes is hard
Harder perhaps for me than you
I have noticed the darker thoughts
Seem singularly warm to me
The danger is in their reality
We are all just humanity
With the same limits
The same regrets
When you see them
They smile
They may have come miles and miles
And they smile
I had the opportunity
To meet the most beautiful soul
Then my own soul froze
Knowing
How could they ever know?
How could they ever know
The depth of your affection
The impact of their creation
It's the best of times
The significant times
That my soul stops me
Stops me dead
It is my alarm
My warning bell
Sometimes I wish
It was not so honest with me
But I know
I always know
The physical impossibilities
She will never know
She will never know the power of her soul
She will never know the grip
Her words had on my heart
She will never know her own inspiration
She will never look at me
And see who I am
However her heart wishes
We are only faces
It is bearable to know
The heart is in the right place
The rest must be let go
We are only human
But all this leads me to say
I hope with all of me I am never a hero
They have further to fall
And I fall far enough
