He is a hero of mine.
He is one of many granted, not all of them male,
not of all them perhaps the typical heroic type,
some have even let me down
as I have let them down
but I have never stopped loving them
for in each person, I see the hero
trying to burst free, trying to live up to the ideal
set down by the first
and it is a heroic nature that eludes me
completely and without favour.
You are a hero, you are someone I admire
