Not Superwoman

Sometimes I forget
Why I wake up every morning
Seeing only their regret
Of not looking past me and my storm
But cussing me out,
Telling me to go die in a ditch,
Pushing me farther into my shell
Where I hide in disgrace, a mere glitch
In society's programming.
I'm not your superwoman,
I'm not going to be closing
The dark doors you open.
I'm not perfect, I don't fly,
I don't even know how to breathe
Every time I try
To see past your schemes.
I am not beautiful,
I am not a size zero,
But I am me, and if I'm truthful,
I really love the girl who isn't a hero.
All I can promise is that
I will wipe your tears
I can promise you that
You no longer have to give in to your fears.
I'm not superwoman
But for you, I can try.
