Where's Superman?

Where's Superman?
Where are the heroes?
When you need them...
We read about the comics.
We watch the movies.
So where are they?
Superman has a bleeding mark.
Batman has flown away.
Wonder Woman's bracelets are rusty.
Spider-Man, has fallen from his web of shame.
People are dying.
Heroes are so great in the movies.
What goes around doesn't always come around.
Villains come in the form of roses.
I grew up on concrete.
I grew up in prison.
I grew up in shackles.
I grew up with blood.
But I was raised with hatred.
And was brought up within madness.
Where are the heroes?
Where were you when I needed you?
For the true heroes are never heard from.

Well done... And I do have an answer. An honest cop...of which there are very few... Certain men and women of our armed forces who commit exceptional acts of bravery. A few public servants like firemen and ambulance drivers. The common joe who runs into a burning building and carries out a victim. And just simple people like thee and I who commit random acts of kindness. The question is not where are the hero's? They are all around us... The question is why do people not care about them anymore... It is the deviants and the murderers who get the press. While the unsung hero's in the background continue to do what they do without recognition. Those are our hero's. Wolf_Lord ,'', ^@@^ ,'',

That's right, the true heroes in life such as the cops and firemen aren't celebrated
As much as superheroes.
Maybe it's because we dream of a hero that can break the boundaries of life and death.
And can be stronger then the actual heroes that we have.

Yes... I am partial to the X men myself because it makes sense. They are mutations or the the next leap forward in the evolutionary scale. It is a viable concept. ,'', ^@@^ ,'',

i guess heros are over rated
when one needs them
they are not there

because like us
heros need a break
and they get tired too

but when chaos rules
we look for those heros

That's very true, heroes when we get down to it are people and human just like us.
Superheroes are what we wish they were. ^^ thank you for your review
