Carl Andrew Pino Poet Free verse

Superhero

Help me, I scream
I thrash and shout
Falling headfirst
I need a superhero now

They're getting louder
Wrecking the metal I've sown
If anyone can hear me
I need a superhero

The poison is spreading
Polluting every vein
I can find no elixir
Superhero ease the pain

They're overpowering me
Locking me in fences
Bottomless horrors
Superhero stop the endless

The rebellion has sparked
Burning like a flame
Burning away my flesh
Superhero bring me rain

Help me, please
Don't make me shout
Falling headfirst
Superhero, I need you now
