Word: Dragon

Breath
your flames, 
ugly beast,
for I will stand. 
Words will always do
more damage than your flames. 
You’re simply misunderstood, 
a beast whom no one will approach.
We are truly alike, aren’t we?
Two beasts that no humans will ever love. 
So let me sit by you and spin a tale, 
even if your ears cannot hear and 
your mouth cannot respond to me. 
Of kingdoms and tragedies, 
which were caused by this beast.
You are innocent, 
dragon, for 
the guilty
one is 
me.
