Twilight
A beautiful sky
Just after the setting sun
Reds, and blues, and violet greys
I saw a dragon Breathing fire
Soaring into the horizon
Into a twilight world That i now inhabited
And realised suddenly That i was seeing myself
Reflections on a river below
My eyes were an shimmering emerald green
As specks of scarlet red Flickered, as i blinked
As i raged, and roared Upon the firey scene below
I could feel the hot coals
Yearning, and burning Within my throat
As my acrid, acid tongue
Lashed out again With a venting rage
As i ignited Another stream of burning flames
At a cruel, and angry world below
Then there was only smoke
As my bitter vengeance
Had breathed it's last breath
Nature would now be saved
From the monstrous beasts
That had savaged And ravaged its body
Biting the caring hand That had borne it life
This inhuman, inhumane, inhumanity
I lit a candle And watched with sadness
As its flame died
Drowned in its own waxen lifeblood
And cried
