Poem

“The Gods have been most cruel”
Said the old man to me
Standing inside the sun’s light
Casting a long shadow 
Over barren rocks
“Most cruel to you”

“Most cruel” I echoed
Tugging at my chains
That hold me fast between my twin desires
The Dragons trying to splice my body
Even as they seek to rend my heart in two
And pull apart my soul
To share me between them equally

I look as the old man does to you		                 I look as the old man does to you
To see you waiting without		                               To see you waiting within
As you look back at me with your eyes so sad	       As you look back at me
A little tired and full or yearnings		                       With your head held high
Like my own			                                                  Full of pride
And I strain against my chains		                             With the knowledge we are right
Seeking to touch you			                                    That we are safe from ourselves
To hold you				                                            Sheltered from our needs
Kiss you				                                              Our screaming desires
Breathe you			                                                   Shielded by our honour

			                      But the Dragon pulls me back
			                      To tighten the chains
			                       Leaving me gasping for breath
			                       Unable to see you in my eyes
			                       But knowing you are there
			                       In my heart
			                       Just beyond my reach
