My \\\"superpower\\\"

hbrandy85

I have a superpower. Many other people do too, they just don't realize it. 

My superpower is mind control. It can make me believe things that aren't real.

And I believe it all. 

Sometimes it blurs my focus and I can't tell what is real and what is not.

It gives me good things to believe sometimes. But the good things aren't real either.

Then when my focus comes back, I'm left broken by the good I believed.

My superpower can take "I'm mad at you" and turn it into "I hate you."

And I believe it. It tells me all kind of things. And the first thing that happens that makes me feel that way, my superpower swoops in and takes control.

It starts by saying " see. I told you."

Then it says " why did you not believe me? Silly you. Now look at you. You should have listened to me. My way is the only way!"

Then it says " get up. Try again. But always remember what I said! See you shortly."

Then when finally let's go, I'm lost and confused.

What was real? What wasn't?

I hate my superpower.

What's yours?
