Every time you come around
I get weak
When you touch me
It takes my every ounce of control
For my knees not to buckle underneath me
To keep myself from falling to the ground
I think you and I could work
But you just might be kryptonite

You don’t glow green
Or show any signs of radioactivity
But you can do something no one else can
You can take me over
When you’re talking to me
Nothing else matters
I’ll believe anything you say
Even if, Kryptonite,
You’re poisoning me

My dear, dear Kryptonite
You say you don’t want to hurt me
So you have to go away
But you’ve been hurting me this whole time
Opening me up
Hurting me in such a good way
That now that I’m alone and have regained my “strength”
All I can do is cry for you to come back to me

Break me down again
Please
I’m begging you
This Superwoman needs her Kryptonite.
