Beneath the Brave

I see beneath your outer side of toughened nails immune to hurt where downy nature still descry the empathy for which you thirst Brave you face each day uproarious your smile seldom giving way through work bent down and often rigorous no thought of what your burden weighs You speak the truth and do what you say In quiet quality of masculine grace then play like a child who can't replace exhaustion for the thrill of living today I find myself lost in a stare of disbelief beholding you your colors revealed underneath and the view is strikingly beautiful Your like sunshine on my darkest days on golden fields... the rain the revelation of prayer, earnestly prayed the kindred soul that will never be tamed I used to look through tinted lens that airbrushed imperfections but on myself alone depend unable to trust in intervention You take the lead then in patience teach and still give me room to breath humbly you take the place... of ground beneath my feet We built our walls of protection so high some came close but never climbed but we see beneath the beautiful and know the need of saying "I'm fine" Safe to take off strengths facade when love in action won't deny letting down its trusted guard saying... take it off I see inside Inspired by "Beneath your Beautiful" (by: Labrinth)
