Duel --- Co-Write With Liam Mcdaid

Sweet flowing hands Sweeping charm Dancing slowly Like wings of a butterfly His eyes - gentle, perceiving, acknowledging In the midst of silence, he's aware of her every move Sliding along Shuffles feet as arms go back Taking snake shape The great cobra strikes His lips - challenged, firm yet slightly amused In the midst of chaos, he's alert of her every attack Clashing sounds Defending one heart Each strike finding equal Bows the head in honor of grace His hands - deadly, lethal yet softened towards her In the midst of the duel, he shares a moment with her Claws attack Sweeping movements Floating on air Gliding souls Within a heartbeat Smiling defeat His heart - beats in admiration, slightly fascinated In the end, as he smiles in defeat...a heart is silently stolen Originally created in 2013. (Note: The poem was inspired by the duel scene between actor Tony Chiu Wai Leung and actress Ziyi Zhang in the movie 'The Grandmaster' directed by Kar Wai Wong. This is a 2013 Hong Kong movie that tells the life story of a martial arts master who taught the Wing Chun martial art style to Bruce Lee.)
