Courage is a wonderful phenomenon Anyone can possess it indeed It is an everlasting feeling Grown from a tender and loving seed Courage is in a dying and sick child With the biggest heart all can see Fighting with every inch of their body Loving life more than you and me It is a brave and heroic firefighter Running into a firestorm of hell Saving lives and futures of strangers Our own miraculous wishing well A soldier in a fierous and deadly war Losing brothers before their eyes Fighting with their whole body and soul Under a gloomy blood drenched sky Courage is a breast cancer survivor Beating death at its own game Never giving up in the least bit Rejoicing in their own personal fame A single parent raising a child More daunting and tedious than we see Two roles molded into one Becoming the mother, the father, the We Courage is a relief aid worker Traveling to a dangerous and foreign place Helping the poor and unfortunate Some things everyone should taste Courage is beating a drug addiction Demons consuming people’s lives Ripping away our youth and innocence Making us so much stronger, brave and wise Courage is also standing up for yourself When everyone is tearing you apart Living the best life possible And doing so with all your heart.
