Superpower

I often pray for a superpower nowadays,

It’s been years since I have seen you.

I know the days are hard.

And I am not there with you.

But I know,

You have always been strong.

 And you will always be.

Setbacks have always been a part of life.

And you have always won over them.

And this time as well, you will win.

Wipe your tears for the journey is still long.

How I wish I could teleport myself to you.

Hold you tightly and cry with you.

There are a lot of things you need to hear.

I have always wanted to tell you.

“I have always been proud of you.

And I have always been grateful that you have confided in me.

No, you were never a burden.

And no you have never disturbed me.”

Oh baby! How I wish I could see you now.

How I wish I could fly to you.

And tell you everything you need to hear.

I wish I could tell you that your scars are not ugly.

That your scars are beautiful and a mark of your strength.

That your past is past, and it is never coming back again.
