Cry For Him

--

Cry for him

Our savior,

The man in shadows

We never see.

--

The silent hero,

Masked by conformity,

With the world on his shoulders,

He faces what we can't.

--

His only weakness,

His greatest strength.

His only strength,

His biggest secret.

--

Cry for him,

Our friend,

The man in daylight

We always forget.


A/N: Technically comic books are my sister's domain, but I was watching "Smallville" and this came to me. It's my first on-purpose attempt at free-verse, so give me a break; it was really hard to suppress the urge to count syllables.
