The Bruised Leader

Drip drop, the tears

heart with locked fears,

vision and goals bear

nod to a mass swear.

Smiles and joys may

mask the unknown tears,

 by pushing the stern gears,

cord of a bruised dear.

But, hey, you are

strong enough to clear,

roar of a lion so near,

canoeing the bruises 

to disappear!
