The dragon with amber eyes,
gazes through the smoke.
It cannot slay you with it’s lies,
so it is you that shall choke.
Its hoard is mighty and stored,
made of gold and emeralds,
yet so is your horrid sword,
that slashes through all the generals.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
