Fire Drake

FIREDRAKE

A dragon I have slain in the past has
Come back to find me as I sleep in the 
Arms of a pale white dream

He hides within the catacombs of my soul
Seeking to devour the very essence of 
My being

His fiery breath scorches the foundations
Of my emotions melting away my sanity

His talons rip at my conscience stripping
Me of life’s reality

This horrid serpent I know so well
lurks in the shadows of my dark world
Never seen never heard but I know he’s there
Oh yes I know he’s there
