Dragon

Speared through my heart, an arrow- They spoke of it as a dark dismay, But I found it somewhat to my fancy, For it brought my dreams to play. The scales that feathered down his spine And sparkled; displayed upon his tail, Caused my darkened eyes to shine, As I beheld wondrously, the god of hell. My tears dissolved without a warning As his fiery breath struck my dazzled eyes, I thought not of the coming morning While he told me all his stunning lies. I fell asleep while staring at the scarlet sky; I remembered not the song I was to sing, And so came the very last breath I should sigh- Beneath the dragon's heavy wing.
