The Power of Both Sides
Super hero or villain
What a choice to make
The one everyone loves
Or the one they all love to hate
On one hand it would be great
To be the one who saves the day
Protects those who cannot protect themselves
Make the world just a little safer
On the other hand it would be more satisfying
To hide inside your pain and make them suffer
To rip every ounce of happiness from each fake
To repay those who have hurt you or used you
Oh but to be both now that would be the ultimate
By day help those who deserve help
Read the rest of the poem Show less
By night rip apart the users and fakes
With the Super power being the gift of knowledge
Knowledge of exactly who deserves being saved
Knowledge of who deserves being ripped apart
Being the one who saves those who deserve it
And also the destruction of all that do not
By day being the loved Super hero
By night being the hated villain
But no one knowing that I am both
The hero to those who are good by day
The villain avenger at night who rips apart the unworthy
