Rebel Inside Me

They do not see The rebel tucked deep inside me Oh yes A rebel They may soon see Conveniently hidden away Behind a subtly charmed smile A charismatic voice of an angel And eyes as sweet Yet fierce as the deep blue sea They do not see The rebel tucked deep inside me But they will In due time As the minute clock rushes forward Revealing its hand Of everything for which it stands But yet I stand Confident and radiant Ready to defend this land Pause Deep breath Even in trenches Dug deep into this sand They do not see The rebel tucked deep inside me Tucked cleverly away Behind soft spoken words of wisdom From a mind of poetry Romantic and true to its kind And a kindness Pure with love in my heart But yes A rebel They do not see inside me
