Afraid

dragon-1964746_640

The villagers scream Run, be sorely afraid!
Though not a charming beast to hold and love
When knights heft their mighty steel blades
She peers into his eyes, sees the soul of a dove

Though not a charming beast to hold and love
As she cries Stop! and stands her ground
She peers into his eyes, sees the soul of a dove
And knows they will be forever bound

As she cries Stop! and stands her ground
Scaled skin of leather, he breathes killing fire
And knows they will be forever bound
As her heart is engulfed with a blaze of desire
Scaled skin of leather, he breathes killing fire
When knights heft their mighty steel blades
As her heart is engulfed with a blaze of desire
The villagers scream Run, be sorely afraid!
