A Common Hero

A hero was once born to the mother of nature destined to fight battles of a commoner his body unscathed but his soul bore all the scars to a higher place he was led by fate breaking his bonds with humans one after the other heart filled with grief he journeyed beyond for the pain he suffered the skies cried for him trees shed their leaves for his bare feet on rocks he left his heart on the pavement along the path he chose of which he has forgotten winds carried him when he can't himself as his battles were only beginning he is a poet who has not the seen the sun shine for so long in darkness what more can he sing about?
