"I am a Martial Artist"

I am a martial artist.

I see through different eyes.

I see a bigger picture

when others see gray skies.



Though many can't conceive it,

I stand ... facing the wind.

My bravery, not from fighting,

but from my strength within.



I am a martial artist.

I'll walk the extra mile.

Not because I have too,

but because it's worth my while.



I know that I am different,

when I stand on a crowded street.

I know the fullness of winning.

I've tasted the cup of defeat.



I am a martial artist.

They say I walk with ease.

Though trained for bodily harm,

my intentions are for peace.



The world may come and go,

but a different path I'll choose.

A path I will not stray from,

no matter, win or lose.
