I am Robbie

I am fearless and intuitive 
I wonder if I really am  
I hear the calm waves
I see blue and nothing else
I want assurance
I am fearless and intuitive

I pretend I'm not alone
I feel despair
I touch a lifeless body
I worry there's few days left for me
I cry because that's all there is to do
I am fearless and intuitive

I understand the circumstances
I say it'll be ok
I dream my life isn't over 
I try but don't succeed 
I hope this isn't the end
I am fearless and intuitive

The Hero

"A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming disabilities."-Christopher Reeve. 

     I agree with Chris. A hero is a person who overcomes his/her everyday struggles to take part in providing strength for a different being. A personal hero to me would be my uncle. My uncle is my rock. He provides me with the support and strength that I need. For any problem that I may have, I know I can count on him to get me through them. My uncle is able to help me even though he has many problems of his own. He is going through an abhorrent divorce. He is divorcing his wife for the second time after a failed attempt to settle their differences; for the sake of their second child. Going through a huge struggle, he still finds the words to ask me how I am feeling and how I'm doing in school. To be able to put aside all your struggles-hardships and still be able to comfort someone else is truly remarkable. He is my HERO!
