#1 emptiness

Dreaming and dreaming all night and day long

Once a knight, another a lover, but always with purpose 

You know it's not real, you know you will wake up

But then you dream it again and again

You expand it, visualize it, improve it

The emotions storm inside of you like never before.

You get attached

And then one day, you wake up after dreaming it once again

As satisfied as ever

But like a knife through the heart, the thought hits you

The probability of such happy moments, of such a successful life in reality

Is near nonexistent

The happiness and satisfaction vanish immediately, leaving emptiness

But if you feel so empty, why can you feel pain?

And that's how emptiness can hurt

#2 superpower

If you could have a superpower, what would it be?

Some would choose flying, some invisibility

But I would choose the best one of them all:

The ability to stop time on everything around me, except myself.

How many times have I wished for everything to just stop and wait.

I know it's inevitable, I just need time to prepare! to pull myself together and to calm down!

But others don't need such time and so, it continues

Until everything crushes, and everything fails

Once again I don't have the time to prepare for the next disaster

And so the cycle continues

And just choose reality control!

That's just being a smart-ass!
