Soldier


The biggest coward of a man is to awaken the love of a woman with out the intention of loving her. You tower over her; stature ominous. The pain upon your face, your perseverance is quite obvious. A man who stands tall against storms but retreats at the whisper of promises. It's a shame. So quick to crave the lips and be tempted by the hips of a woman who puts you on the front line against her dignity. She only asked you one thing: what are your intentions. Question avoided, emotions exploited but she ain't ready to back down yet. Mind set, eyes locked, love awakened. Marching towards boundaries forsaken by your lack of reassurance . You've met your match. You see, she's grown attached to you though you may not catch her as she falls for your passion. She's a fighter. Blood, sweat and tears shed simply to be victorious over your affection, she grows militant at the mere mention of losing your attention. She is armed, fighting to be in yours.  She's declared a full out war, bombs poured over your distance, all forms of resistance shut down. She will occupy your thoughts. Hard battle fought but you've been beat. Your defense hit hard by her defeat, cornered with no direction to retreat so you surrender yourself. Stone heart altered, steel walls faltered, for she has conquered your hesitance and replaced it with her love. She is your soldier.
