Tiernan Booth Poems

Who am I?
Am I a ship in the sky?
Am I one to leave my heart on the line?
Who will I be?
...

Superman come save me,
I'm calling out come take me,
The walls are closing in,
Superman the air's to thin!
...

Maybe somewhere there's a handbook on why,
Heroes don't teach everyone how to fly.
Maybe they're scared we won't use it for good,
Maybe they would if they knew that they could.
...

Home.
It's where you live,
It's where you love,
It's where you take your first steps,
...

A superhero went to mingle, in a world of normal people.
No one noticed as he'd walk, as he listened, as he'd talk.
"He's just so ordinary! " that's what everybody thought,
He heard the things they'd say, about other people when they were away,
...

He didn't want to stay so he just ran away,
What we did not know is that's not what he meant,
when he said that he wasn't okay.
That's not what he meant,
...

You wake up in the morning,
Remembering an argument from the night before,
When your face was slammed in the door,
By your mother because she was bored,
...

So what's it gonna be?
The problem isn't you I think it's me,
It's classic 'we're not meant to be.'
