Biological Heroes and Villains

Parents, the heroes to their child

The ones they needed as a child

Great pride they take through you, child

Heroes don’t have to bring you into the world

In fact, they make you their world

All children live in the world of parents,

Not all parents are real though

Saving us for a sacrifice

Now we just envision them as angels in the sky

But, not all parents are the best

Forever a reason to have a hero to run to

From a villain parent who takes

The self- esteem away from her child

Loss of love in a lacking relationship

Of one parent, the other raised me like he was a hero

Innocence of a child left a bit with his life

Of a child to parent

I appreciate my Godfather Bruce because he was everything you could ask for from a parent, so he was my inspiration for this piece.
