She was born with a dragon tattoo
On the small of her back
And a butterfly that flutters
On the nape of her neck

The dragon daily throws fireballs
While the butterfly puts them out with her tears
The forever feel of heartache and emotion
Scars left that will never smear

It is often said that time heals wounds
Good and evil an everlasting struggle
Yin and yang, the north and south
Opposing forces are never subtle

She's accepted the truth of her tattoo's
As her lot in life
The battle rages daily
Fighting for her souls light

Inner turmoil, all she knows
But darkness won't consume
A once held brightness
One day shall resume

For the girl with the dragon tattoo
On the small of her back
And the butterfly that flutters
At the nape of her neck
