Tears
Can you feel something is amiss
Can you feel waters salty kiss
Breathing water you can feel
Touching you from head to heel
The dragon king has lived for years
And you are now inside his tears
So as you roll down from his eye
Wonder; why does the dragon cry
Ever since the dawn of man
He’s been the leader of his clan
A dragon strong, proud and cold
His skin a burnished bronze and gold
His wings so strong and yet so light
In his red eyes the lust for life
Once he was man’s fiercest foe
Now he sits and cries alone
The alchemists have gone away
The wizards too have had their day
The knights are dead the damsels too
Imagination’s been run through
By the twisted sword of fate
For gone is love what’s left is hate
Only love can make a dragon fly
So now he sits alone and cries
Can you feel waters salty kiss
Breathing water you can feel
Touching you from head to heel
The dragon king has lived for years
And you are now inside his tears
So as you roll down from his eye
Wonder; why does the dragon cry
Ever since the dawn of man
He’s been the leader of his clan
A dragon strong, proud and cold
His skin a burnished bronze and gold
His wings so strong and yet so light
In his red eyes the lust for life
Once he was man’s fiercest foe
Now he sits and cries alone
The alchemists have gone away
The wizards too have had their day
The knights are dead the damsels too
Imagination’s been run through
By the twisted sword of fate
For gone is love what’s left is hate
Only love can make a dragon fly
So now he sits alone and cries

I like very much, thanks for sharing
Wish you happy
the dragon cried his bitter tears
Then slowly opening his eyes
the dragon came to realise
Through the nightmare of deceit
the dragon staggered to his feet
and screamed ‘To you old gods above
forever rid my of my love
Give me fire and give me might
give me back the power of flight’
He felt the pain so deep inside
as his love was cauterised
and turned into two tears of blood
the final outcome of his love
Then the dragon gave a roar
his wings unfurled began to soar
With two ruby tears beneath his eyes
he left to find his paradise
So now you see him flying high
surrounded by his accolytes
It seems he found his paradise
until you look into his eyes
The love is gone ...its all too late
Forever lost – his true soul mate
this was the second part
