Hero-the word is so
Inadequate to describe you
To risk your life in the hope
Of saving others-
How can we ever repay you?

It cannot be done, and
All we can say is thank you, and
It's just not enough in light
Of what you have done
But we offer it up, 'Thank you.'

And the lesson you have
Taught us today is simply this:
A hero is merely an
Ordinary person who forgets
Themselves so that others might live.
