Dragons and demons

“I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There’s nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat, look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close, it’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide”

“They say it’s what you make
I say it’s up to fate
It’s woven in my soul
I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can’t escape this now
Unless you show me how”

Demons – song by Imagine Dragons

Yes, I love You
I can praise
Your charm and beauty
Your sense of humor
Your inteligence
Your just and kind heart
Your work ...
All of that
Is in You
In plenty

But that’s not
Why
That doesn’t explain
Why I could
Go on like that
Forever
Denying myself
Just for one
Random smile
Of yours

Saying that
I love
Your demons
Would be
A bit of
Misinterpretation
A bit of a lie
In my life
I came to recognize them
And understand
Them deeply
I had to learn
To fight my own ones
And then I fought
A few „legions”
Of various „gremlins”
Hidden in hearts and souls
Of other unfortunates
The fate put in my path.

Roughly, several thousands
“Dragon’s slaying”
Encounters
In both
Professional
And Voluntary
Capacity

Oh, I know them well
Like Geralt of Rivia
I have spent years
Roaming the Earth
Chasing
And rounding them up
Forgetting my own sake
Never finding my place
But becoming
An expert “witcher”

And I can see
Your monsters
And I’m not scared of them
At all

But you should...

I admire
Your courage
And resilience
Yes, you are brave
I love
That look of a warrior
In your beautiful eyes
I love that
Stubbornness
Hidden in the corners of
Your lips
When you’re about
“To show them all”
I know you
Have the heart
To fight
Which I love

And it is
Your battleground
It is your time
To prevail
To win
To get the glory

Still, I know
Your demons
I know
They’re dangerous
They can kill
Been to a couple of
Funerals

I love you
Despite
Or
Maybe because
Of your demons

Just utilize
My skills and experience
Don’t worry
About The Price
A smile and good word
Would usually suffice
I have helped
Thousands of people
For free
Sometimes
They said their thanks
Sometimes
They laughed at me
And ridiculed
As a spent
Naive fool

Yes I love You
Regardless
Of what your demons
Say
Or do
