Beholder

Stare into my eyes and tell me what you see.

A portrait painted with beauty and innocence

Or a collection of pixels illustrating magnificence?

Can you count the number of thoughts fluttering pass my labyrinthine mind?

Can you crack the secrets trapped in my mouth,

Lock behind my lips,

That my tongue tries to spill?

Or the ironclad defenses my psyche erected to protect my precious organ?

The only organ that can be pulverized by the actions of those loved dearly.

Can you read the lyrical prose tattooed on my soul?

Chronicling all my triumphs and misfortunes

Stare into my eyes and tell me what you see.

The heart of a lion,

Soul of a warrior,

Mind of a scholar

Or just a pretty face with a seductress body?

Tell me what you see.
