Smiling, contented just to watch
Beaming, happy just to resist to touch
Positive, desperate for the little things
Appreciative, loving just to savour the small things
My Renaissance thinker, you battle the rest
No sword held high just your beauty and wit
That Machaivellian villian dont hold a torch to you
He may charge but you will never lose
Articulate, may stumble but always stands back up
Proud, unafraid to be wrong or look bad
Brave, survived all those who put you down
Saved, not only me but also yourself
I am your hero, a night in gleaming armour
Ready to stand tall and kill the enemy
No Machaivellian man will pass these walls
Of love and admiration I've built unknowingly around you

Outlook
Ever changing perspectives is all I've ever known
Nothing stays the same for ever too long
Ghosts of my past finally swept away
Hopes and dreams of a more amazing day
Harsh light rains down as poisonous air swirls around
Dark clouds and closed doors are all to be found
Wishing thinking, none of my questions answered
Faint understanding and reasoning barely heard
While children run, scream and shout
Oblivious to the pain, hurt, suffering to come
Their outlook on life millions of bright rainbows
Of playtime, innocence no consequence or lows
To step back just 8 years and remember the outlook on life
Compare to now and how much you can grow
Sweetness, bitterness, unpleasantness and joy
Final realisation of more seeds waiting to be sown
For this is life, is not as easy and simple as you thought when you were ten
For this is yours, for you to decide what choices you will make
Be influenced well, step back and see the bigger picture
Takes risks but dont fall into nets of barbed wire
Some people will fall, those people who ten years back were oh so sweet
Now thugs and bullies who terrorise you on the street
Others will fly high like how you could never imagine
Those people are the ones to influence the new youth
Outlooks will change, you are what you are
Not as innocent as that dazzling star
Makes those mistakes and take note
Becomes better than they all could have hoped
Nothing stays the same for ever too long
Ghosts of my past finally swept away
Hopes and dreams of a more amazing day
Harsh light rains down as poisonous air swirls around
Dark clouds and closed doors are all to be found
Wishing thinking, none of my questions answered
Faint understanding and reasoning barely heard
While children run, scream and shout
Oblivious to the pain, hurt, suffering to come
Their outlook on life millions of bright rainbows
Of playtime, innocence no consequence or lows
To step back just 8 years and remember the outlook on life
Compare to now and how much you can grow
Sweetness, bitterness, unpleasantness and joy
Final realisation of more seeds waiting to be sown
For this is life, is not as easy and simple as you thought when you were ten
For this is yours, for you to decide what choices you will make
Be influenced well, step back and see the bigger picture
Takes risks but dont fall into nets of barbed wire
Some people will fall, those people who ten years back were oh so sweet
Now thugs and bullies who terrorise you on the street
Others will fly high like how you could never imagine
Those people are the ones to influence the new youth
Outlooks will change, you are what you are
Not as innocent as that dazzling star
Makes those mistakes and take note
Becomes better than they all could have hoped
