Wonder Woman

Holding the weight of the world on her shoulders

To stare in the eyes of danger which is colder

Than the North Pole

That’s what many are told

But only she can conjure up enough energy

Bold.

She is

To take everyone’s problems

And have everyone’s back

And never see her break a sweat

Never has she cracked

It’s hard to adhere to others

When deep inside you are slowly being smothered

Scared of being discovered

For her true weakness.

She takes her pen and paper to proceed

To escape reality

When writing it feels like she is defying the laws of gravity

Scientifically speaking she is no Einstein but

She has the ability to know what is on someone’s mind

But she can not explain her own

Her powers have over grown.

People are her weakness,her kryptonite that allows her facial features to absorb the tears

in which her eyes produce

that will eventually take years away from her youth.

However, she can not allow that to be shown.

So she displays her feelings through poetry to make this weakness known.

Ooooh. I really liked this one, particularly because of the rhythm. The superhero's weakness. Cool. :)

This is a really cool concept. One way to take this to he next level is to really turn the subject into a super hero if your going to compare her to wonder woman go all out. One of the rules my creative writer made us live by was show don't tell.
