Some Kind Of Hero A Poem


He was a comfort to me.
When my heart was breaking.
He, my online friend
Who lives far away
He was there for me when
I needed consoling.

Boy did I need him!
He knew just the words
I needed to hear
He seemed to know
Exactly what to say
Perhaps he had been
The consoler to many
Another friend.

He was like a sponsor
In one of those
Twelve step programs
He was like a mentor
For some endeavor.
He was and is to me
Some kind of hero.

He would not want
That name attached to him
It is kind of quaint
And naive
But he really stepped up
When I needed someone
To listen and give
Me advice on a sad situation.

In short, he made my night
Less painful.
I am way better off
Not wallowing
And being depressed.
I am actually not
Beating myself up
For that is what
I would have done
In the past
When faced with
A similar circumstance.

Thank goodness he was available to chat with tonight. I dislike being so needful of comfort but I appreciate when it is freely and genuinely given.
