A child sleeps sound, dreams filled with light, Unknowing of the coming fight. No warrior face, no steely gaze, Just innocence in hazy days. Then darkness falls, a heavy shroud, Oppression's hand, it speaks aloud In cruel commands and bitter wrong, Where hope once flew, now fear is strong. The child awakes, the dreams now gone, A different soul, from dusk till dawn. The fire sparked by tyrant's deed, Plants courage like a vital seed. Forced to rise, to stand and face, The brutal power, the lost grace. With trembling hands, but heart so bold, A braveheart blooms, a story told. Not born of kings, nor bred for war, But forged in pain, forevermore. The oppressor's hand, a twisted fate, Creates the brave, before it's late.

Braveheart Blooms
A child sleeps sound, dreams filled with light, Unknowing of the coming fight. No warrior face, no steely gaze, Just innocence in hazy days. Then darkness falls, a heavy shroud, Oppression's hand, it speaks aloud In cruel commands and bitter wrong, Where hope once flew, now fear is strong. The child awakes, the dreams now gone, A different soul, from dusk till dawn. The fire sparked by tyrant's deed, Plants courage like a vital seed. Forced to rise, to stand and face, The brutal power, the lost grace. With trembling hands, but heart so bold, A braveheart blooms, a story told. Not born of kings, nor bred for war, But forged in pain, forevermore. The oppressor's hand, a twisted fate, Creates the brave, before it's late.
