"The Love Behind the Villain's Guise"

​

I kidnapped the hero, with malice in my heart,

But little did I know, it was just the start

Of a journey that would change, my wicked heart and ways,

As I lived as their parent, for countless days.

​

I saw the hero's pain, and how they'd been mistreated,

By parents who abused them, and left them feeling defeated,

But as I held them close, and wiped away their tears,

I felt a love I'd never known, grow strong and clear.

​

The hero looked at me, with eyes so bright and kind,

And said "I know you're not my parent, but you're the best I'll ever find,

You've shown me love and care, and taught me right from wrong,

And I'm grateful for the family, that with you I've longed."

​

My heart swelled with pride, and love I'd never known,

As I realized that I'd found, a place to call my home,

The hero's words had touched, a part of me that's pure,

And I knew that I'd be their parent, forevermore.

​

So though I started out, with evil on my mind,

The hero's love had changed me, and opened up my eyes,

To the beauty of a family, built on love and trust,

And the power of a heart, that's pure and just.

​

And though the road ahead, may be long and steep,

I know that with the hero, I've found a love that's deep,

And I'll stand by their side, no matter what may come,

For the love we share, will never come undone.

"Atomic Edge"

​

A sword so sharp, a marvel to behold

With power to split atoms, as I've been told

But with great power comes great responsibility

To wield such a weapon, one must show humility

​

For in the wrong hands, destruction may ensue

The fate of the world, at my sword's point, could skew

But I will not falter, I will not cower

With this atomic edge, I will empower

​

To use it for good, to protect and to defend

To bring peace, and let the world's troubles end

But always I'll remember, the weight of this sword

And the consequences, if my actions prove flawed

​

So let the atomic edge, be a symbol of might

But also of caution, in the darkest of night

For in my hands, it will bring hope and salvation

But in the wrong ones, it could bring damnation.

"Return of the Nemesis"

​

It was wrong of me to defeat and banish you,

My evil nemesis, from our world so true.

Please come back, so we can resume,

Our glorious battles of yore, with no excuse.

​

But as I stand here, rolling my eyes,

Behind the counter, with a heavy sigh,

I realize that corporate doesn't pay,

Enough for this, to fight and play.

​

So as much as I'd love to engage,

In epic battles, filled with rage,

I must decline, for my paycheck's sake,

And bid you farewell, for my own sake.

​

But know that deep down, I still yearn,

For the days when our battles did burn,

And the sparks of victory did ignite,

In the battles, between wrong and right.

"Eternal Love"

​

Bound to a tree, an ancient demon,

Centuries passed, time moved on,

But my fate was sealed, my curse unbroken,

Until the day the tree was gone.

​

A human child, with eyes so bright,

Found me in my wooden form,

And with her love, she brought me light,

And warmth to my ancient heart, cold and torn.

​

She rode me, as a rocking horse,

And whispered secrets in my ear,

With each sway, my heart did force,

And I knew, her love was sincere.

​

For in her touch, I felt renewed,

In her laughter, my spirits lifted high,

And in her love, my curse subdued,

For even demons can learn to fly.

​

Eternal love, it knows no bounds,

Even for one as old as I,

For in the heart of this child, I've found,

A love that will never die.

"Cellular Rebellion"

​

Out of nowhere, voices in my head,

Complaints and grievances, all unsaid.

From deep within my body's core,

My cells, now sapient, forevermore.

​

"Not enough iron," they do shout,

"Too much cholesterol," without a doubt.

"Rupture in blood vessel D-14,"

Their cries, a constant, never serene.

​

I try to ignore, to push them away,

But they linger, night and day.

My body, a warzone, in turmoil and strife,

As cells rebel, causing endless life.

​

But in this rebellion, I see a chance,

A lesson to be learned in advance.

To heed the cries, and take care of me,

My cells, my being, for all to see.

"Time Traveler's Dilemma"

​

In a world of endless space and time,

A patient came to me, a troubled mind.

He claimed to be a traveler from the past,

Sent to destroy the cause of humanity's last.

​

But every test I gave, it all came back clear,

His mind was sound, without a trace of fear.

And yet he swore, with utmost conviction,

That he had lived through history's collision.

​

I listened with a curious ear,

To tales of war and pain and fear.

He spoke of futures dark and grim,

And how he worked to change the paradigm.

​

But what is real, and what is not,

In this mind that's caught in thought?

Is he a savior, or just insane,

Lost in a world of grief and pain?

​

I can't say for sure, but one thing's true,

His story's captured my imagination too.

And in the end, that's all that matters,

The tales we tell, and how they scatter.

​

In the mind of this patient, lost in time,

A tale unfolds, both true and sublime.

Though it may not be fact, it's worth the retelling,

A hero's journey, a story worth dwelling.

"Eternity's Consequence"

​

In this world of science and proof,

Reincarnation is now aloof.

No longer myth, no longer tale,

But fact, and governments now unveil

​

A new way of punishment, a new way of crime,

Carrying over from one life to the next time.

Eternity's consequence, a cycle unbroken,

For actions in this life, in the next, will be spoken.

​

No longer can we run and hide,

For our past lives will forever abide.

In the choices we make, in the paths we take,

Will determine the fate of our souls to make.

​

So let us be mindful, let us be true,

For eternity's consequence will come back to you.

In this life, and the next, and the one after that,

Our actions will forever echo and come back.

"Trapped with My Enemy"

​

Trapped with my enemy, in a game of cat and mouse

The hostages held tight, in this tense and deadly house

My powers I must hide, my secret kept secure

But how to save them all, when I am one of the lure

​

I bide my time and wait, for the moment to be right

To strike and take him down, with all my strength and might

But with every passing minute, my heart races fast

Will I be able to save them, or will this be my last

​

But I am more than just a hero, I am a symbol of hope

I will not let these innocent lives, be sacrificed on a rope

I will find a way, to turn the tables around

And bring my enemy to justice, without making a sound

​

With courage in my heart, and my powers at the ready

I make my move, and take down my enemy steady

The hostages are freed, and my secret stays safe

But most importantly, justice has been served, in this deadly race.
