The Mist of the Dragon

From my dream I awaken, or have I?

Rubbing my eyes to clear the mist of dreams

A voice breaks the dark silence, beckoning me

“Come to me…I am your protector”

 

My body trembles but I move forward

Slow footsteps upon the mist covered ground.

Darkness surrounds me

My heart pounding within my chest

 

As I draw nearer, my eyes focus on the darkness ahead

Within the mist, a shadowed outline appears

A voice echoes thru the mist

“Come closer…do not be afraid”

 

As if by magic, the form takes shape in front of my eyes

Long talons, glimmering scales, folded wings

Eyes glowing red, like the heart of a fire

Before me, perched upon a rock, sits a regal black dragon

 

I step back at the sight of him. Fear covers me

His mere presence has taken hold of me

Swept up in the embrace of his power

I tremble as I try to speak

 

What do you want with me, I ask him

Why have you called me here?

An evil smile spreads across his face

You do not know? I’ve been waiting for you.

 

Fear grips my heart…waiting for me?

He looks upon me seeing thru me with those piercing eyes

Words dripping from his mouth like venom as his wings unfold

I have come to you every night in your dreams

Yet you did not come, you turned away

I had almost given up on you

 

I watch you every night and see how your soul calls out

Wanting the pain to go away, and I have called to you

Trying to let you know that I am your protector

The Lord of your being

The one who will bring you peace.

 

But you are a dragon, I say as I look upon him

Am I? He says as a smirk crosses his lips

Maybe this is the form I choose for now

Do you not find me enticing; does your heart not race?

I can see into your soul. I know your desires.

 

My body trembles as I try to speak

Trust him with my soul?

Something that is so fragile and all but lost

I raise my eyes to him, quieting my fear to reply to him

 

If I trust you with my soul

Do you promise not to steal it or destroy it?

He nods at me and smiles.

Eyes flashing, burning into me.

With reservation I move closer and offer my hand to him

Knowing that my life could be forfeit

 

His huge wings move forward surrounding me

His head bending down as if to kiss me

I close my eyes, for if it is the end I do not wish to see it

As he whispers to me, I am the one, the protector of your soul, safe haven

I will love you forever thru this time and beyond
I will be your Master and protector, trust me with all you are.

 

All becomes darkness

One flash of lightening chased by thunder

Followed by silence and darkness

I stand still, feeling the warm touch of a hand in mine

 

Opening my eyes I see before me a man

Flashing eyes and a stunning smile

Who are you?  Surely you are not the dragon?

A smile crosses his lips and he speaks

Yes, I am he and now I am yours

 

It took the courage of your heart to brave the mist

You conquered your fears and came to me

Now I am released from this realm to return with you

My promise holds true…I will love you forever

 

And so we turn hand in hand

Facing the mist once again

What was darkness now is light

For love has found me and He walks with me to begin our journey together

My Master, my protector, the keeper of my soul
