Some legends sleep in covers
of old and dusty books,
forgotten tales of heroes
in places no one looks.
Some heroes haunt a castle,
or where a battle spent,
and inside cold museums
where the artifacts are sent.
Some legends won't be held
in the pages of a book.
Some heroes won't be catalogued
in hopes you'll take a look.
Some legends are alive,
as either you or me,
They continue to inspire
the people we will be.
