Redefining The Super Hero

 

Heroic Friendship .

A Super Hero  heroic friend, is someone who drops in at precisely the right moment, taking you in, up and beyond yourself, with no need for detail or explanation – because they have no need to know.

A Super Hero  heroic friend, is comfortable enough in pain and role to welcome you in your own, tenderly cradling your place in time – and leaving the threads alone.

A Super Hero  heroic friend’s words not only catch and soothe but wrap around shoulders made soft and light – as you lap long  in the lingering warmth.

A Super Hero  heroic friend, hovers quiet and long and never really leaves even when you go.  Is solid enough to carry you with no show of strain – remaining loyal throughout your endless cause.
