The Dragon Slayer

I must somehow slay this dragon That's infilitrated my soul Tho I fight with all my might His grasp is just too tight He will not let me go They call this dragon heartache His claws, as strong as steel His breath forever burning My heart will not stop yearning Just once again, to feel Tho I fight without a weapon He will not fight me fair I have no mighty sword to wield He fights me in an unseen field With a flame that's called despair Tho this battle keeps on raging I will not surrender For I have too much to lose And I must continue to choose To be my heart's defender If this broken heart is destiny I will not hide my face This dragon I will slay And I'll drive this pain away Til he bows in utter disgrace
