My Superpower.

My Superpower.

A Poem by RibhyMay
"

I possess the ultimate superpower, and very few people know of her existence.

"
I have a superpower.
I share my body with another being.
She's shy, and shaky, but can scream ever so loud.
And she lives inside my mind.
We don't actually talk much.
I talk, but she just listens.
But the funny thing is,
We can always tell what the other is thinking.
Every single time.
Just because you can't see her,
Doesn't mean she's not there.
Although she can be scary.
She's really rather sweet.
She's a genius.
I simply provide the motor skills.
We work together in harmony,
Even though sometimes we clash.
And we always know what the other is thinking.
Every single time.
She analyses every possible outcome of a situation,
In three seconds flat.
She tells me of every escape route,
Every locked door,
Every small space.
She sees everything.
She pushes me and pushes me,
Until I can no longer breathe,
But she knows that I can do it.
She is so strong, 
And has made me even stronger,
She has programmed my body herself,
Making me run faster,
Jump higher,
And reach further than I have ever done before.
She is invincible,
And she has made me invincible too.
We always know what the other is thinking.
Every single time.

I have Anxiety.
What's YOUR superpower?

I beg to differ..Actually, for a 5-minute piece it is VERY spectacular.
Clever perspective of a condition and the talent/gift therein. Loved it,
Thanks for sharing.
