Hero

There are no heroes here on earth
And this, some do not know
For when there is a bright light
There must be a shadow.

Not one soul here is truly bad
So no one is truly good
Only in fables and in dreams
Does one do all they should

Some may say that there are those
Who have a soul that's pure
But even though they think this true
There's no way to be sure

It is ot possible to have
A soul entirely black
And only in fairytales
Do opposites attract

I really enjoyed your poem. It reminds me of learning about how people used to believe that a child was either born purely good or inherently evil. Thank you for sharing your thinking.
