A superhero, since I always try to come to your rescue. Except, unlike
your typical superhero, I actually want you to discover who I am. I
don't wear any masks, or hide behind grandiose names like `Superman',
or `Batman'; it's just that you won't even admit my existence.
A punching bag. And I have the lumps and bruises and scars to prove it.
A slave. I do your every bidding, with a never-ceasing smile. But
you're too busy to realize that.
A bodyguard. But I guess that falls under the `superhero' description.
A big brother. For that's all you'd let me be to you. Not that
there's anything fundamentally wrong with that arrangement.
A shock-absorber. A poorly designed one at that. I can't handle the
emotional torment you do unto me, but still I try to just... eherm,
absorb all of them. At full blow. And I never complain. Well, not
much, anyway.
I'm in heaven. If there is such a place. Just knowing I'm breathing
the same air you are; just being able to say that I spend most of my
day in the same school, the same building, the same room with you is
all worth it.
If I could change anything in that arrangement, I wouldn't do a thing.
I like it this way. Except for all the hurt you've caused, and will
undoubtedly cause me again.
Next thing we know, I'm nailed to a cross for you.
