Evolved Character
Below is a poem written by the artist that accompanies the art piece:
I know in the moment, it may be hard to Believe
But trust when I say...Everything is not what it seems
Feelings can control the very depths of Your soul
Beware to control or climb yourself out a hole
So I tell you the truth, expect a formidable Foe
And it is only right to prove that
You are much stronger than you know
As you keep aiming high trust that they will aim low
The form they come in depends on you though
Analyze what needs work
In the insides of you because surely they know
Having a insides view
If they can get you to react how they want you to
There is no playing fair for them
This much I say is true
Is it your temper or patience?
Maybe even your expectations
Whatever it is they will find
To board you on their Emotional ride
Confuse them with love
Confuse them with peace
Soon they will see they can't drop you off
On (OUT OF CONTROL) street
Stay stable, stand firm as a rock in the sea
Eventually they will scream out
WE CAN'T CHOP DOWN THIS TREE!
We tried from the front... The back... and side to side There is no getting this person on our emotional ride
Emotions are gifts recieved by mastering control
Don't let them take over your body and soul
I have faith you can beat your formidable Foes
So give them what they wanted... In your way...
A masters show!
