My Hero

A Hero to most is a fairytale thing . . . 
So unbelievable most don't believe.
But lucky for me . . . 
I have gotten to see
A HERO defined only by me.

A man so strong . . .  
To lift the weight from my shoulders so I can breathe. 

A man so courage's . . .  
As to walk down a dark path with my hand in his 

A man so fearless . . . 
That only he can comfort my biggest fears. 

A man, who from the beginning . . .  
Said yes when everything else said no 

A man, who appeared . . .  
When I thought, I was all alone. 

A man with a heart so warms . . .  
That with only his kiss I was brought back to life. 

A man who can brighten . . .  
Any day with his smile. 

A man like no other . . . 
My world he soon  became.
He was unexpected...
A gift he was ment to be. 

An angel undercover . . . 
A man like no other.

He became an important piece in my life's puzzle. 
He opened my life to a belief I never thought was real.


I never believed in fairytale...
Till the day you walked in. 

For my Hero has come...
My HERO defined only by me.

A Chance

A Chance

Everyone has a story . . . 
No of which are the same . . . 
Most of those that past through this place . . . 
Are of sorrow and shame.

Is there a life without this heartache? ...
Without this pain?

I don't know how to live by me alone . . . 
There was always someone to give me a home.
Never knowing how to live by me alone.

My road once traveled . . . 
Had suddenly come to a halt?
Because of the decisions, I once had made.
Now no where to go . . . 
It was me I had to face . . . 
This person I had not really known.

Left to make it on my own . . . 
Never did I expect to end up at this door.

I’m lucky to have been blinded . . . 
By the reality of it all.
The future staring  at me . . . 
In it I must survive.

My heart knew how it felt . . . 
There was no mistaken . . . 
That it felt forgotten.

But something deep inside of me . . . 
Was earning to get out?...
A feeling I now realized . . . 
I could no longer hide.

I had no choice but to survive . . . 
That road I once traveled . . . 
I could no longer lead . . . 
Not sure which direction I needed to go.

The first night I came here . . . 
I said a little prayer . . . 
For a piece of mind that someone was still there.

And at that moment I could’t believe . . . 
A piece of mind had come to me.

I came to the mission without a choice . . . 
But I left here with a chance of my own.
