no such Thing as a Hero


tell me why we are close

I feel her heart beat

as much as I feel his

 

but something is wrong

as we cannot stay this close for

much longer

how long is too long

 

She was a hero

and so was he

but where does that leave me

 

They stood for everything.

I fell for nothing.

Noone understands what it's like to be me.

 

Why did they have to go 

It should have been me.

It should have been me
