Save Me Spiderman

Note: This was posted on time but the poem wasn't viewing correctly, so i had to edit it..

Save Me Spiderman
By Kelsie Valone
Spiderman take me far away
Cries me, the fair Mary Jane
Save me from these horrors, I pray

Take me up into your web, where we can lay
Up high where we can feel the rain
Spiderman take me far away

Trapped and tortured I am not okay
As villains bring my life pain
Save me from these horrors, I pray

So I cry and wait for the day
When you’ll come make my life sane
Spiderman take me far away

In the darkness of New York City I stay
With the Green Goblin running up the lane
Save me from these horrors, I pray

Without you my skies area bleak gray
Life without you I cannot sustain
Spiderman take me far away
Save me from these horrors, I pray


I decided to write this villanelle about Spiderman because I was inspired by Bucky Sinister’s poem to write about a superhero. I just recently got into watching the Spiderman movies, and was watching them while I created this poem. Mary Jane’s character was especially inspirational to me, so I decided to write this as a love poem from her perspective.
