-hero-

One Word #4
Word: Hero
Hero, noun, A person noted for courageous acts or nobility of character.

Falling deeper in, until you don’t even realize how far you’ve fallen,
If you throw yourself so far down, who is going to save you?
When that person you once loved so dearly is gone,
How are they going to save you? What will you do?
They may be gone, but that doesn’t mean you can’t believe, 
So it’s time to pick yourself back up and continue on. 
It’s true that your hero may be long gone,
But how would they react if they saw you digging yourself deeper? 
Life has a weird and seemingly rude way of pushing us forward, 
But life pushes you down for a reason:
When you’re at the bottom, the only way is up. 
If you can make it through this, you can get through anything,
I know, for I wasn’t able to cry when he left,
For a child simply doesn’t have that luxury, 
At least, I didn’t. 
But I know he’s gone, and even now, he is still with me,
So is your hero, so look to the future. 
Drink merrily, love passionately, and for that hero of yours,
Live happily.
