The Dragon Inside 2

The dragon no longer sleeps,
Yet she no loger eats.
She can no longer feed on you,
She grows weaker wondering what to do.
The longer you are away,
She will grow weaker by the day.
She roars silently,
She goes on defiantely.
She refuses to quiet,
Her hunger does not wane on her diet.
She is restless,
And, oh so, selfish.
She needs to feed,
On your seed.
She would have me take it from any man I see,
The dragon that hides inside of me.
Even though you are away at war,
On the distant shores...
There is a war going on inside of me,
She longs to be set free,
This dragon inside of me.
Do not worry, my love, I will hold her at bay,
Until the day...
You return to me,
Your Queen.
And upon the day you return she will destroy us,
With just a whiff of your musk.
She will devour our souls and our hearts,
She will never again let us be apart.
She will throw us headlong into madness,
Never again to know sadness.
Flesh against flesh,
Not able to catch our own breath.
And when her magic is all but spent,
The magic that we were lent...
Our bodies slick and entwined,
We look upon the devine...
The forceful dragon inside of me,
Slumbers peacefully.
But she will rise up again soon,
In the light of the waning moon.
Everyday she will take a part of you and me,
Everytime she gets free,
This dragon inside of me.

Whoa, he is definitely wanting to return to you. Just continue to be the (may I suggest this as the name of this piece?) "Dragon keeper"
