A Different Kind of Hero
Alone in the darkness without a friend
comes one who will help until the end.
To guide you on the path that never fades
past endless mountains and everglades.
To the seas beyond and onward till
the storms are calm and waters still.
And sailing further into the light of day
where darkness ceases to be in the way,
comes in glorious light the home you left behind
to venture into worlds unknown and unkind.
Now you’re back, back to where you belong
and yet somehow knew all along.
You tried to get back alone but failed every time.
You needed someone else to get you back in time.
