Warrior

Beneath the Surface

What I see

Most people would say that this is just a drawing

A bunch of scribbles on a blank piece of paper

I say it's both

But what I see is a masterpiece

Of controlled emotion

Where each line was felt from deep within

A feeling so strong that words can't even describe

So,

In this drawing I see a man

A man who knows what he wants

A man who will go out and achieve his victory

A man of strength

Who will defend the ones he loves

As well as destroy what has been wronged

A man who can fix what has been broke

I see man who cares with a smile

To light up anyone's soul

With a gentle touch you become putty in his hands

With a look into his eyes

You know that nothing else matters

I see a man

Who enjoys a simple laugh

With the wit of the winds he controls the storm

What I see is a man

Who has fought his way into its heart

Traveling immensely through the treacherous weather

With every downfall and every smite

The storm will always try to fight

I see a man who wants to win

One day the storm will give in

The things I see I love the most

The scribbles to a drawing that has pulled me close

What I see is not skin deep

I see the hidden that refuses to peep

A little truth begins to show

I fall in love with what I know

So just some scribbles you may see

The melting of a heart is what happens to me
