Superwomen Poem by travion hood

My Superwomen

I used to have a superwomen
To save me when I’m down
When no one sat and listened
Then she would come around

She never let me cry
And I thought she’d never break my heart
But reality set in on me
When we became apart

She always had my back
And would always make me smile
And when I said I needed her
She’d stay around a while

She swooped in to protect me
And save me from the world
She would hold me in her arms
And tell me I’m her favorite man

But one day it all ended
No more superwomen for me
I never saw it coming
Not expecting her to leave

She took off without warning
And left behind my broken heart
My superwomen was gone for good
So I’m right back at the start

No one left to talk to
To listen to my dreams
No one here to brush me off
When I fall and skin my knees

I thought you were forever
I thought the love was true
Just know you were my superwomen
And I’ll be missing you.
