A Hero in All of Us

A hero we see
A hero we can be
A hero doesn’t come to us when we want them to but when we need them the most
A hero isn’t just a soldier or family member or someone who is close
But anyone who cares enough to be part of our life
So that they can change us to help others and help heroism to rife
Because in life there will always be a hero among us
It could be anyone, it could even be someone that sits next to us on the bus
That we never realized how someone could have the position of choosing our fate by pulling a simple switch from a lever
That in a split second that someone could change our life forever
So stand up tall
And catch others when they fall
So that we may have someone we can trust
Because there’s a hero in all of us

A Time Like These

A time like these
Is a time when we fall on our knees
And ask God,”How could this happen?”
“What kind of human being is responsible for this action?”
“How can we move on from this?”
“When any second a loved one could fall down to the bottomless abyss.”
Because in life there is a time to laugh, a time to smile, and a time to mourn
A time when our heart is torn
But even amongst this tragedy there is still good on this earth
That we the people have so much worth
That we live in dark times
That they may be able to take our lives but they will never be able to take our hearts and minds
So even in times like these
We can lift ourselves up from our torn up knees

A Marriage to Thrive

A couple so eager to start a new life
To be pronounced husband and wife
To be standing at the altar
To not falter
But to be sure that they are the one
Who will team up to raise your future daughter or son
To make them your number one priority
To not have one partner have absolute authority
That a man and a woman are equal
That they represent one movie and not a sequel
To stay with them through sickness and health
To be with them for who they are and not of their wealth
A marriage is not something you try to survive
It’s a marriage to thrive
So that you can be faithful and loving as long as you are alive

Beautiful

There is beauty in all of us
Even that weird kid sitting next to you on the bus
That being beautiful has more than just one meaning
That it’s that moment when your mind starts dreaming
And your heart starts pumping
And your body starts jumping
When your eyes gaze at something of beauty
That it’s our duty
To make sure that they know how special they are
That it doesn’t matter how far
Their paths take them
That they treat them like a precious gem
That in that moment they see something that makes their heart fluster
To trust him or to trust her
To let them know that they mean so much
To let your lips touch
That they mean more than just being cute
That they will bear your fruit
That they are not just suitable or reasonable
They are someone on this earth that finds you beautiful

Fire

A fire is burning
When our life is yearning
A spark waiting to ignite
To a desire that provides warmth and sight
For fire is a necessity but can also be a curse
That can change from better to worse
A pyro is what we are
We can go from nothing to having a brand new car
But once we have something we become an unstoppable flame
That no living creature can tame
That we pray to God to let it rain
Before our minds go insane
To stop this burning fire
That started from one simple desire
To burn everything to destruction
But thank God we have a second chance for reconstruction
To control fire
And not let fire control your desire

Unforgettable

Unforgettable
That’s what you are
That it doesn’t matter how far you are
You will always be my number one star
That it doesn’t matter how far our paths go
My love for you will always show
Why did I ever let you slip away
When we were molded and shaped together with clay
Your the one I will never forget
All the plans that we we’re going to set
Me loosing you is my one regret
If only you could see what I see
My memory and love for you will always be
Unforgettable

The Knights of the Round Table

A knight so vigilant with desire
Preparing as much skill that he can acquire
To protect his empire
He unveils his wildering sword
Forged by God, entitled by a lord
Swore oath to protect his realm, even with no reward
A man of honor, a man of courage, a man of hope
To take any treacherous path, even the ones he cannot cope
To climb the highest slope
To sit at a round table with a legendary king
To be surrounded by your brothers, to know that your more than just a human being
To be knighted by your king and to have the honor to kiss his ring
For I am a knight
Not just any knight
I am the Omni Knight

Princess

A young girl giggled as her father read her a bed time story
He read a fairy tale story about a knight who didn’t care for fame and glory
All he cared for was the love from a princess locked up in a tower
Where she had almost no food and water and not enough water to shower
She didn’t have much time
For a witch had cast a spell on her and punish her beauty as a crime
But the knight became her shining armor
He was very brave but not much of a charmer
Not much of a ladies man
But would do anything to take her hand
He defeated the witch
He was offered enough gold from her father to make him rich
But the only thing he wanted was her
Having her in his life made life seem as though it wasn’t a blur
She looked up at him and admitted, “Thank you for saving me but I’m not a princess I’m a daughter from a rich merchant.”
“But you are a princess, a lady with honor, with love, with courage, and with beauty is what I define a princess. I’m no knight but I am a humble servant.”
“I grow crops for farming.”
“I’m sorry but I’m no prince charming.”

She responded, “A knight is a man with courage and loyalty. He comes once in a life time.”
The little girl’s father concluded, “And they lived happily ever after. The end. Just remember that it doesn’t matter who you are, you are capable of doing great things and you can be who ever you want to be.”
“Daddy I want to be a princess.”
“But you are a princess.”
“Daddy I hope my prince is just like you.”
“I hope your dreams come true.”

The Soldiers Letter

Dear Wife
Remember the saying when life flashes before your eyes
Every second of every minute my body cries
It cries for your presence
It prays for protection from a God who created the heavens
That every stroke written by my pen is a piece of my heart
That even when we are separated by sea, not anything, not even a bullet can tear us apart
That no matter what trials I have faced
Of all the memories I have placed
The one that I will always remember is the one that we embraced
That I have brothers who will die for me and I to them
That we grow from our roots and we sprout to our stems
That our children will always know that we fought so that they can be free
So they can be whoever they want to be
Honey, in this letter I leave you my heart and my legacy
Love
Your best friend
Your soul mate
Your soldier
