Hero

Hero.
A name bringing fame?
A sign of doing something right?
A good thing?

She walks above clouds.
Representing innocence,
correctness,
the ideal.
Lonely in search of perfection as if it were the right.
Lonely in achieving perfection
Status of invulnerability,
untouchability.
Gaining jealousy of co-sexuals
and respect of opposites.
Hated for being who she is,
loved, for what she's not?

Walks on ground
stepping in puddles
hiding exposing traits
while being wrong.
Unable to avoid failure.
Perfection, ha!
unhurtable?
Hating herself for hatred by others.
Jealous of those who are jealous.
Not wanting the opportunity to break hearts.
Looking as she does not to be.

Hero
with a dagger in her chest,
not wanting to be one.
