My Dragon
Embers of fire fill the night sky
Breath of dragons to children\'s peeking eyes
Slowly burning shame or glory
Like a forgotten long lost recited story
A piece of a star was torn apart
And hung on wet spring dew
On green, green blades of grass
The flames seer and burn on through
Our memory is blind as faith
Apocolypse of fate and fear
The end is coming, coming near
With sounds of silent songs for us to hear
Voiceless, echoes, one to the next
A secret born from lies
Upon a golden throne the dragon sits
Awaiting stormy skies
To breath and light the air aloud
With flame that burns so hot
To fall in light disgrace he found
Himself but there he found her not
A heart broken through skin and ribs
It beats for not one soul
Not even love of self he found
hiding in the darkest hole
Until the truth came forth that night
The words were softly spoken
Whispered to my ear I heard it clear
I thought that he’d been joking
Alas he cried, I fear my pain
Alone with no help from those above
Not God nor angels saved him then
And her she found new love
He wandered cold embraced by night
It covered his loss of love
He wept and felt no pain again
And breathed his smoke enough
His wings they soared above the moon
Above the clouds he flew
A pace that none could keep
Except a lonely few
The stars they danced upon the grass
The sky fell to the earth
The dragon died then suddenly
Never receiving his rebirth
The ground was black and charred and burnt
The night was almost morn
He sat awaiting the days first light
His conscious it was torn
A crown he did not find himself
A kingdom all but lost
The flight of death had little sound
To hear it lost then found
Because if anything is heard
If anything is seen
My best guess for you my friend
Is that night was just a dream
Awake and breath in the day of new
And reach for warmth from up above
For if the dragon flys again
There will be little left to love
