What do you see?


What do you see when you take a look at me?

My brown hair, blue eyes and addiction to tea?

Or a student of 23 years a mere 6 months from being set free?

Can you possibly see everything else that I could be?

A warrior, courageous with bravery to spare

With the strength of a lion to which no one can compare.

An artist so skillful some deem it unfair

Painting delicate flowers, sunsets and splendid fanfares.

A daring sailor maneuvering through treacherous seas

Exploring new horizons against the gentle breeze.

While you may have trouble, it is easy for me

Can you possibly see everything else that I could be?
