Dragon Love

Dandylion

That dull luster hanging around

your blood shot eyes.

there are tears waiting to happen here.

It cannot be helped

by words, or love

only a choice.

I stand delicately in a haze of fears,

unknown if your breath still hangs on your

parched, cracked lips.

One day you may feel this ache I carry for you.

Love is tainted when cut with crystals.

I fall for your beauty again and again,

believing the seductive lie of change, of hope.

I have felt the burn of your dragon’s breath from way out here.

I watch with horror and helplessness as that she-demon

devours your diamond like soul.

    THANKS DANDY ~ For caring and sharing ~ I hope you found it cathartic to share. I don't have any kids ~ yet. But Parents tell me there are always good days and bad days as you raise them. Beautifully penned but such a sad sad story. Thinking of you ~ praying for you and your Son. Yours BRIAN
