Heroes

among the gods
at pantheon
your deeds echoing
in my soul,
reveal your history.

nobody declared pain
and yet the ravages of time
echo with your sacrifice.
nobody confessed agony
but somebody stood against
the evils of men, of devils,
against the gods themselves.

tell me your hopes
invest in me your dreams
and I will proclaim

they were the heroes of old
great men of renown

among the gods
at pantheon
some of these honored dead
were mortals
some of these mortals
were leaders
some of these leaders
were kings and queens
all of them took up
sword and shield
show me your dreams
heroes, champions
empower me with your strength
I fly...
I dance...
I sing...
I kill...

I AM.
