Superman.
Batman.
Spiderman.
Iron man.
They all are heroes.
Am I right?
But there is a truth hidden behind.
Heroes fall sometimes.
"Be a hero" They say.
Fly across the world
Just to save the day.
But yet again there is a truth hidden.
Even heroes fall.
Disaster strikes
In a matter of seconds.
Time seems to still.
As a person—
Human
Seems to fall.
Instead of fighting
The human keeps falling.
Darkness is at the bottom.
Lightness is at the top.
Which road will they go?
Instead they fall
Fast, as I may add
But there seems to be one thing missing.
Another person
This person had already fallen
And went above the waters.
This person, however,
Wants to help the human.
But yet again the human keeps falling
Afraid to go above.
Afraid to let anyone in.
The human is a hero.
And the person needed that hero
But even heroes fall.
And heroes do not necessarily need to be heroes.
But instead
Be human too.
And go through a door,
That is wide open for them
And let pain consume them
Let the person take care of them this time
Because even heroes fall.
You don't have to be a hero to fall
Because even humans—
People today
Fall to.
Which road will you go on?
Light?
Dark?
Open?
Close?
