Thread of the Hero-Path

He was moved,
in his young years...
inspired by something special,
as in a gift, perhaps.

Expressed with a gleam
in his eye.
Everyone remembers,
it's no surprise.

He would rise,
and follow the thread
of the hero-path...
as a journey in his mind.

Living on a string,
remembering,
being pulled along...
all the way through.

And there was bliss,
and sometimes, he would miss,
but he kept going on...
all in a dream.
