I was asked to write a poem for my Literature class. The topic was this.

"Write a Poem about someone you know who "may not wear a hero's crown" but has shown bravery in his/her everyday life."

And heres what I came up with.

Dedicated to…
By
Ben White


Some Said You wouldn’t make it
Others Laughed and Said “Forsake It”
Through Rise and fall
You Climbed Heights Small and Tall
When it seemed all hope was gone
And all the hurt you’ve undergone
Came Crashing Down on top of You
Like a wave in the vast great blue
And when it looked as though you lost the Round
You fought and stood your ground
At every high and every low
At every strike and every blow
You won the Battle at the last bend
And I was cheering for you, till the end.

This Poem is dedicated to all my friends, who I’ve helped and watched. They are ture Heroes. For overcoming the trials they’ve been put through. (I'm glad that I could help you and be there for you through it all, and I regret none of it)
