Love comes banging at my door, What should I do? Should I answer it, invite it in? My palms have frozen in fear, So I run away, My heart is beating to a rhythmic tone of death, As the door is opened, I see hope, I see paradise, a new beginning, the chance to have it all, but why do I fear it? What causes this emotion to rise above all others? I shall slay this fearless dragon, or so as it seemed at the time, The fear rises as it strikes me with every blow I attempt, Who is winning only time tells? I am getting weaker by the second, The wrath of this dragon is what I shall feel again, This cycle continues as I fight it once more, Do I see no hope, no recovery, and no new routes? My mind is lost in the matrix of choices, Should I accept the invitation and go on forth? or shall I stay back and drown in apathy? The time is now to act if I must, Leaving earth and onto hell is the only way I can escape the dragon, for in hell I feel at home, apathy is the ruler there, The fear has done this to me, My very essence is lost, I shall spend the rest of eternity sobbing in my sorrows in a loveless heart withering to nothing, for I have lost the opportunity once more, Opportunity such as these strikes once in lifetime, twice if you get lucky.

That Dragon is within us all my friend, and we all fight/love it. Nice way of putting the fighting struggles within our souls. Joel. I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

in a way we feed this dragon by holding on to the bad love we have gotten in the past and thinking that its always going to be the same, but i asure you that you will have many more knocks on your door and one day you will let the dragon starve. *HUG* take care Broken Wings "As you learn and grow, you will realize the greater the pain, the greater the growth." -IYANLA VANZANT |
