I'm a hero too

I'm a hero too
I've saved myself
Countless times
From crushing waves
That swore
To swallow me whole
Picked myself off the bathroom floor
Dusted
Wiped snots
And tears
Off my face
Soothed my own wounds
The sleepless nights
I listened
To my own soulful cries
The silent battles
I fought for myself
When I watered this body
With love
When it was in no shape
Of being loved by anyone
I became a hero
