Here's to the Heroes

Here's to the people who cry themselves to sleep because they've lost someone dear to them. Or the ones who stay strong when everyone else is weak, even though you feel just as weak as they do.  

Here's to the people who not only lost a family member but a best friend.

Here's to the people that still believe that this particular friend is still out there being a real super hero, not just a picture in a comic book.

Here's to the people who say "I pledge allegiance" with honor.

Here's to the people, who just want a place to call home.

Here's to the people who fight, whether it's sickness, or actual combat.

Here's  to you super heroes. May you  come home safe and sound.
