Samurai Heart

Folder: 
CHRIS

Under the watchful eyes of the samurai

I am safe

His blade meets with resistance

And rebellion

His words are those of wise men

Though he's still much too young

His heart is kind yet harsh

And he never "burdens" others

Though we all wish to know his secrets

His mind is complex and beautiful

But I suppose what intrigues me most

Is his heart that seems locked up

And divided from the world

Does he know I'm searching?

Looking for a key

A key to unlock his secrets

The secrets in his heart.

When you write this and most things about me I am amazed at the depth of what you see in me without me ever having to even say it. This poem is one of my favorites for the reason that it shows such determination although I am not sure I will ever be able to fully tell you what that burden I will not release is.
