I'M the Real Superhero

You'll ask me what I'm trying to say
Oh yeah! you can't blame me
Can't blame me cause I'm crazy for hearing these words
I wished the death but I'm still alive
You can't blame your brother
All he did was for you even if he's further
He doesn't hate you and he'll never do
You'll be shocked when you realize
That your superheroes are fake and not by your side
They say kitty isn't a cat, Snoopy isn't a dog
They thought pluto was a planet
And that the earth was the center
No! they were all wrong as you now
When you think that superheroes are real
And that your brother hates you
Oh no little boy! things are not as you think
So never eat rice with milk
Look at the sun, seek for the truth
Wait! I was mistaken! don't look at it with a naked eye
you'll be blind
Life is a battle, life is a game!
But who will win? the answer is the same
You can say I'm mad yet you can't dare to say I'm dead
unlike your superheroes
You're in the forest, frightened of your shadow
How pity! they won't come, your superheroes won't save you
As they're not real
You'll never understand what I say 
Ninety nine, books in the refrigerator
Frogs in a cup of milk
Ninety nine, this is my birthday
I've no superhero since they don't exist
The superhero is inside you and me
So little boy! vanish this pain
And give me my gift again


You're a superhero

I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Thank you very much miss SKAT for your welcome. However, unfortunately I'll stay just for few days but don't worry my first poetry soup "friend" is unforgettable, Amina.
