Francis Duggan - True Heroes

Francis Duggan - True Heroes

True heroes are not sportsmen or sportswomen though some with that would not agree br And true heroes are not wealthy power brokers with a strong sense of I, myself and me, br 'No' true heroes are the under class battlers whose battle is against the odds br The poor and the forgotten fringe dwellers and the people frowned on by the Gods. br br True heroes not Hollywood starlets or president or king or queen br And nothing is written about them in Newspaper and magazine br They are seen as the under achievers by those who have tainted the name of success br Those who believe that the influence of money is the only key to happiness. br br True heroes live in the poor suburbs the working poor and those on welfare br They keep keeping on through the hard times and battle the ghosts of despair br It's so true that many must grow poorer just to create one new millionaire br And don't tell me that in war as in love that everything in life is fair. br br True heroes in many ways powerless as they struggle up life's steep incline br And they don't dine in upper class restaurants and drink the most expensive wine br The odds seem heavily stacked against them yet bravely they keep keeping on br And only the truest of heroes keep hoping when all hope seems gone.
