That seem too hard to fight,
They lurk in depths of dark despair
Like phantoms in the night.
Perhaps survivors, most of all
Fight dragons in their hearts,
And each step on the healing path
Gives us a brave new start.
We creep up on our dragon's lair
But dare we enter in?
Can we attack our predators
And prove that we can win?
Be brave, survivors, one and all!
Our dragons we disdain,
They hide no more in caves of dark
We won! The dragon's slain!
| (My mother always said that the faceless, nameless terrors inside us were like dragons, figments of imagination, without form or substance, yet one of the hardest creatures we will ever have to fight to conquer. I believe my mother was right.) |
