Batman
I AM BATMAN!Yes, I know it's hard to belive this,But it's true.I may not look like Batman or,Sound like Batman,But TRUST ME,I AM BATMAN.I can take numerous blows to my fragile heart,Be stabbed in the back,And still continue to thrive.I must me a superhero,I must be Batman.I can consistently smile,Even though thoughts of diving into an endless pool and never taking another breath,may cross my mind,I can run miles and miles, Even though i have tons and tons of broken pieces dragging me back,I must be a superhero,I must be BATMAN!I come to the rescue of everyone who asks,but no one has ever returned the favor,But it's okay because I'm Batman.I can be lied to,have my heart and my emotions set on fire,and still stomp through the smoke.I have a dark, desolate, dismal soul,but I still continue to be the light in everyone else's life.I must be Batman.I am broken,I have given out so much joy, peace, love, and happiness,That I forgot to save some for myself.But it's okay because,I'm Batman,I'm a super hero,And I don't need anyone else,at least that's what I tell myself.Because us superheroes are only supposed to give,Us superheroes are only supposed to to save,but no one ever realizes how much we need saving ourselves.Everyone sees the protector, the savior, the "superhero",but never the inside,never the core,never the real you.No one ever takes into account how we sacrifice so much of us,no one ever examines our cursed lives.Every cry for help,Every flashing of the signal,We are there,I am there!But no one is ever here to comfort our cries,or to hug our souls,But it's okay because I'm a superhero,I'm Batman,But you know what,I can never remember asking for this title,I cannot recall ever asking to be Batman,But you know what i do remember?Begging to be saved...Hoping to break free from the curse of being super,because living "super" is equivalent to not living at all.
