Best Poems Written by Shel Rob

What Is a Hero

What is being a hero?
But only flaunting our virtues
And when is it too late? When we are dead?

When we die are we really going to stop?
Or just make it into a routine.

Once we stop, can anyone forget?
If we stop, are we selfish?
And what about us? Who is going to save us?
We need heroes and yet we don't want to be one ourselves,
So what do we do except be hypocrites and lie.
