A Warriors Eyes

Have you ever wanted to live in another place

or felt like you belonged within another time?

I've always been alone in space,

never feeling like there was a place that's mine.

A life I have lived, one of great conscience,

while others chose more the roads of greed.

Never being one who was willing to sit on the fence,

I delved into the fray to fulfill a great need.

Beaten, forgotten, and worst of all betrayed

only to arise from the ashes of my demise,

shocked of course that it was you on display.

I finally saw you without a warrior's eyes.

Without a warrior's eyes

you stared into mine.

Without a warrior's eyes,

you showed it would all be fine.

Without a warrior's eyes,

light entered my life, carried on the wings of a dove.

The first time without a warrior's eyes

was the first sight I saw my true love.

It was all fine deep in my heart

because I'd always known a warrior dies with a warrior's eyes

and I knew it from the very start.

When I lost a warrior's eyes,

you'd already stolen my heart.
