Tell Me What You See
Tell me what you see.
Do you see what lies underneath my armor?
Do you see the demons that lie behind my eyes?
The demons and angels that lie within me leave their mark.
They hide in the hazel sea if you can find them,
some live in the scars left on my skin.
Tell what you see.
Can you see the rivers that flow with raging rapids or the puddles left from ones that have dried?
Can you see the colors?
The waters run deep, some surface from a place inside me.
Their salty flows whisper as they race through the woods,
all different shades of blue and red.
Tell me what you see.
Do you see my broken wings?
Do you see the weight if my sword.
I knightress from another world left without her flight.
My sword that waves and sometimes left to drag,
all i carry into battle.
Tell me what you see.
