the dragon inside

I am but a shell
encasing a dragon
whose fangs yearn for blood

To bring hate, despair
justice and wisdom
for the dragon is my judge

Burning my soul
The dragon is very committed
Because of pain wrought
upon those I have wronged
and outwitted

Those who see me
do not see me
I am too truly bound

my hopes, fears and beliefs
keep me flightless
on the ground

If one day I do take flight
On I'll fly into the night

All shall be burnt black
To my left
And to my right

Until I am forced into my shell
I shall seduce you…
…With my eyes of hell
