Granda

No one is invincible.

Every superhero has a weakness;

Every cape needs to be hung up.

Folded neatly in wait;

Making way for the next brave soul -

To take flight,

To ease the struggle,

To be the strength -

In an otherwise terrifying world.


While we stand, weak,

You take flight into the wind,

Fighting the battles we can’t,

Ensuring our safety.

With powers so rarely found,

A heart made of solid gold;

stubborn generosity.


With effortless wisdom,

You remain strong,

Our beacon of courage.


Now,

As we face an uncertain future,

We look to memories for inspiration,

To help us remain hopeful,

To help us fight the unbeatable.


And even now,

Even when the inevitable occurs,

I know to look to the sky;


With a guiding hand,

You have always been my hero.
