Heroes Are Human

In the eyes of a child 
Resides love without conditions 
Turns a person into a Superhero 
Anguish will flow from those eyes 
When unpredictable truth subsides creating lies
Being seen for the first time 
Wearing the face of humanity 
They’ll be your hero for as long as YOU DECIDE, just realize that EVERY TIME a Superhero must hide in plain sight. They defend us with their might while defending themselves with a Secret Identity. And they tell you to call them Mom.
