H e r o i s m
an unfamiliar word
to me.

They say,
it is an
act of
bravery,
having a
valor
in thyself.

Someone
who saves
a city,
have wands
in their hands,
and having a
mind that
is unique.

Fought a
monster
with 7 heads,
and made
a cure
for a
zombie outbreak.

Those who
can be called
phenomenals.

Someone
who saves
an existence
before it
disappears.

Or maybe...

...before it chooses to disappear.

Could it be
someone
whom you can run to
when you're sad?

Could it be
someone
whom you can feel safe
in their arms?

Or could it be
someone
whom you can cry
unto their shoulders
when despair
consume
your system?

Heroism
isn't just
all about
saving a city,
nor having wands
in our hands,
nor having a
mind that
is unique.

Nor fighting
a monster
with 7 heads,
nor making
a cure
for a
zombie outbreak.

It is also
about saving
someone
from losing
it's will
to live.

Anyone
can be
a hero
by just
giving
nice words,
tight hugs,
and some
warmth.

Saying
greetings to
random people,
being gentle
in every way,
and showing
your contagious
smile.

Heroism
isn't just saving
someone from death,
it is also giving
reasons to stay alive.
Be someone"s hero of their day : )
