You wouldn’t stand a chance
Against my superior strength and speed
But even though I’m strong on the surface
My heart won’t stop to bleed
And I’ve fought against villains
Without a doubt in my mind
But when it comes to love in life
There’s nothing here to find
I try my best to be a good guy
But the world has got me wrong
Although I just might seem cold
My urge for love is strong
And my calling is what keeps me alive
Yet it won’t let me live
Oh, life’s unfair ‘cause the more it takes
The less it seems to give

This is a really good poem, am I right in assuming it's not about a particular superhero, it is just a sort of ode to them...I'm sorry if I am wrong. I really liked this, and the last 4 lines really added punch to the poem. Your rhymes were good and even better it flowed so smoothly. Thanks for entering, it was a pleasure to read x take care and good luck x
