A Dragon's Tale

A handsome prince has to kill a dragon to rescue the princess for a happy ever after ending content with the fairy tale never we asked what fate conspired the dragon to guard the princess the misfortune that bigoted the mighty beast to be a mere watchman of the tower in the darkness of the dungeon as the beauty napping in peace. contemplating his horrors of life that he desired a similar fate not to haunt her. in await of his own rescuer with wings spreading to either corners of the dungeon and with shining eyes shedding light into his emptiness come swooping down from the heavens. but in his tale, less he knew that angels too were a myth he waited day and night with insomnia tired and fatigued, his magnificence reduced when the prince came he fought and failed And hurra! the world said "The worthy" saved our queen from the clutches of a demon. His fate sealed, his desires concealed his purpose unfulfilled never anyone knowing his dreams he lay waste in the pit he lived.
