Courage is the girl standing up to the bully
The girl who can't take it anymore
Who's self confidence has decreased

Courage is the boy who has cancer
Fighting for his life
People have no faith in a miracle 
He's sure he will be okay

Courage is the girl singing at the talent show
Who has the biggest stage fright
But has the best talent

Courage is the woman finishing the race
She has worked for it for months
No one had faith she would finish 

Courage is the soldier fighting for America 
In fear of his and others death 
Still keeps going to this day

Found Poem

I recall times someone judged me
People can be very hurtful
Bullies will say anything
They try to make you feel smaller
They are rude and mean people
