I Have Hidden Super Powers

I don't wear a cape around
My neck, breaking the speed of sound
Or capture bad guys in a web
My powers have never fled
From my heart that's where they stay
Secretly until the day
I see injustice come along
Others are treated so wrong
My super powers become stronger
When I can't take it any longer
Hearing stories of bullying
My special skills kick right in
Set loose, no holding them back
My love alert goes on attack
Not stopping for anything
It won't ease up until I bring
All this hatred to a low
I give one huge final blow
Across the land until there is
No more hate or prejudice
Until then, I'm on alert
Making sure there is no hurt
I will be here till the end
All my powers I will send
Into the hearts of those so weak
Mild mannered, shy and meek
That get pushed around each day
I'll make sure it goes away
This promise will be kept for sure
Any kind of hatred I abhor

Whether this is a stand against hurtful bullying or a metaphorical poem about our Father in Heaven, it is brilliant and well written. Xx~Xx

I too hate bullying Robin - was bullied at school - sadly now its not just verbal and physical bullying its cyber bulling too which has resulted in people committing suicide - hence the reason I dont do social media like 2facedbook! Great write my friend and keep those super human powers going - you do a great job! Hugs jan xxxx
