Just Human
He doesn't have a cool super hero costume like all the other super heroes we know.
He just wears his head on straight with his beautiful smile.
He walks around 7th street showing strength from head to toe.
He is tough, but you can see pain if you stare for awhile.
He saves everyone from everything that may cause them harm.
He asks for nothing in return, Nothing at all.
He even saved me once, caught me from falling with one arm.
He didn't hesitate to save me again when he got the call.
He gives so much but nobody realizes what we are doing to him.
He is slowly fading, slowly his light is dimming emotionally.
He has yet to take a day off from being our hero and just be Tim.
He needs to be shown we need him, not just physically.
He is just human like the rest of us are, I wouldn't change that for anything by far.
