sometimes the mighty eagle
loses to the dragon
for she lacks a fire within
but even in her victory
the dragon retreats
to her den
she knows the eagle will return
like a Phoenix
rising from the ash
another mighty battle
ringing through history like
the infamous Titan clash
for no battle
brings more destruction
no battle
brings more gloom
than the battles we fight
alone at night
crying in a dark room
loneliness is the dragon's lair
the comfortable darkness
in her den
ego says she's safe here
it's better to fight
than let someone in
it's safer to fight
IT'S SAFER TO FIGHT
than let ANONE else in
