If you were a Super Hero...

The age old question.. if you were a super hero what power would you want?

I used to think teleportation... anywhere i liked i could be there in a moment! At the summit of Lady Liberty... On the steps of Machu Pichu... Drinking at some fantasy oasis in the middle of the Sahara. No flights, passports, costs... just the ease of blinking my eyes.

When I was younger i thought invisibility was a great one. Just imagine, going anywhere you shouldn't... life would be like a complete fly-on-the-wall documentary. The ultimate voyeur.. or spy!?

Recently I have decided on the one power, given preference, that i wished was in my possession. Mind reading!

People can be so hard to read at the best of times, but when it's someone extremely close to you it's almost impossible. When love is involved it's easy to say one thing to not hurt someone, when really you're too scared to say all you really want to.
If everyone could read each others minds I can't imagine how the human race would work. No secrets.. everything would be out there. Racism, sexism, the most innocent of thoughts mixed with the totally depraved.. there would be blood, I have no doubt.

But I don't want to read every one's mind... just the one person. The one I love, the one who holds my heart and who I'm totally at mercy too right now. The one I thought held the same visions and future plans as me... and the one I don't ever want to lose.

I'm not a super hero, I'll never achieve my desired super power but even if i were... i don't think it'd help my cause. Love can't be controlled or played, it isn't the game that all the songs make it out to be. It's greater than that.. and I don't want to lose the love i have now.
