I've been the Hero all my life. In the beginning, it was: Save the girl, followed by "You're the best friend I've ever had!" and nothing more. Later on, I would actually get the girl. Call it a string of bad luck, or maybe bad choices, most of which you all already know, but every time, by heart would be torn from my chest (With the exception of the last time). I can definitely say that I've learned to listen to my friends, you've always been right, even if I didn't see it at the time.
I'm done being the Hero. I'm done fighting for the girl, only to watch her fall in love with someone else. Don't get me wrong, I'll still be one of the few good guys left in the world, and I'm sure at some point the Hero in me will rise back to the top. For now though, I'm not looking for forever, I'm not looking for someone to give my heart to. As far as I'm concerned, I already found "The One"...and I let her walk away. Maybe I don't even deserve to find someone to love me, I mean, let's face it, I let the girl of my dreams walk away, and I didn't even fight. I suppose there's only one thing to do though...
This is a message to ALL of the Heroes. Lets burn this city. Lets go out there, and make it our own, and maybe some day, when we've made a name for ourselves, the one's we're supposed to be with will find us, until then...

I do not think it is the males in this society who have forgotten how to be the hero. I have many male friends who are the hero, yet I watch them female after female left to eat their own hat. Therefore I must conclude that it is not the males who have lost the knowledge of Chivalry or Heroism. Yet it is the Female in out society who has forgotten how to be a respectable lady to these men who would more than lay their life on the line for them, and walk to the ends of the earth for them.
ReplyDeleteThe Heroes are dying though. You may know a bunch, but think about how many guys you know who really just shouldn't be alive. I'll bet that number overwhelms your heroes a hundred to one. Sure, we can place some blame at the feet of the Females who don't appreciate the Heroes in the world, but lets face it, they don't appreciate it, because there are so few Heroes left.
ReplyDeleteNo that I cannot deny, as the words you speak are very true. It is a dieing breed on both ends of the spectrum. Where our kind is headed is not going to be a good place.
