What Is a Hero

A hero is like you and me 
Seeing so many possibilities
But not always taking the leaps
Hero's make mistakes 
Which causes them to break 
But they know the stakes 
And know what it takes 
They try to save the day 
Even if their love ones say no way
Sometimes they get confused 
They feel like they are just being used 
Even with their flaws 
They come to the calls 
To try and save them all
