![]() BraveA Poem by Haley Lynn Thomas![]() Don't fall victim to the bystander effect![]() It's so hard to be brave When everyone else is afraid It's so easy to walk away And pretend that you don't see
If it was you in her place Who would come to your aid? When the tables are turned She won't be there to rescue you
It's so easy to walk away Tell yourself someone else will help But by then it might be too late It's up to you to act today
It's not about the glory Or the recognition you'll receive It's about reaching out to those in need And being a voice for those you can't speak
It's so hard to stand up When inside you're terrified But when the tables are turned She'll be there to rescue you © 2012 Haley Lynn Thomas |
