Dragon's Eye

In winter’s bleakness under greying skies Beneath the moon’s eternal silver light I feel the darkness burning in my eyes And fear returns to haunt my dreams tonight. From where I do not know I hear their sighs To guide my soul away from paths of plight. Where will they lead me, I do not know, But where ever they are my heart will go. In love they take me out of flesh and skin revealing truth in ancient stories told and look inside to where all dreams begin as misty curls now mingle new with old Already done before in ways of sin they cleanse my soul so I may hold inside my heart the love they gave to me and find the path of light to set me free. A dragon’s eye upon the power’s sword amethyst kissed by virgin’s gentle lips is bound to truth by measure’s silken cord that rested once upon my fertile hips. and secrets flow from here cannot afford the blood I spent from death’s own fingertips upon the blade that stares into my soul; these ancient words of wisdom make me whole.
