Hero

To be the hero of our story
is our greatest dream,
to change the face of life's existence,
however big it seems.

I'd make all the right things shine
and the wrongs thing fade.
to be a hero here and there and in between
every minute of every day.

My way as a hero
follows each fervent step,
through many dark corners
I've not reached yet.

The farther I walk,
the more I understand,
being a hero in every part
may not be the best of plans.

Truly this is the hardest battle
faced in the heart of man,
a fight for who the hero is
and when he should take a stand.

There's more to the glamour and amor to wear,
broken pieces, shattered hearts stranded here and there.

I can't stand to look,
it burns my eyes and I can't even start to cry,
I used to wish myself a hero and now I ask myself why?

Why you think you can turn the minds of others
towards your right and wonderful ways,
Maybe not all the things you think in your head should even be
thought or said.

Reservations and patience should be your best friends,
they keep you honest and humble till the bittersweet end.

The farther I walk,
the more I understand,
You can only help,
you cannot change the situations at hand.
