The Keeper

The Dragon came and took me away

Stole me from the pain of day

Around my waist, his claws he wrapped

To pull me close to his chest

Heart to heart, breast to breast

He flew into the night, moonlight on his back

 

I am the Princess, Keeper of light

He held me close as he leapt to flight

I was to be his

A slave of his passion

To me he promised no compassion

But one glance at his soul, I knew

That his vicious words were untrue

 

As he threw me down upon the bed

The furthest thought in my mind was dread

I looked into the Dragon’s eyes

And saw the glory that he could be

I craved the romance I could clearly see

Hiding behind his hardened scowl

He let out a cry of love in a vicious howl

 

The night progressed

With my Dragon on my chest

I found myself never to be a slave

Rather a Keeper to the heart he gave me

My Dragon’s soul I wish to save

 

The Dragon has stolen my heart

From him I do not wish to part

I am this Dragon’s Keeper

I can feel the pain of his broken heart, his soul I need to mend

With my light I will tend

To his every wound he will let me near

My darling Dragon, you have nothing to fear
