Hero

Let me go.
I don't want to be your hero.

I'd rather just walk the land.
I don't want to save the day.

I don't want to save the world.
I don't want to take a stand.

But sometimes ~ you know
Those moments.

They stare back at you.
Even though you don't remember them.

They remember you.

So you have become more mysterious these days! You are a very humble and giving person. Loving your perspective on the world.
