Imaginary Friend- Final

acceptance

approval

perception

removal

...

None of these deserve to be capitalized, do they?

"Hmm?"

So you really do come

to keep your promises.

All it took was some...

compromises.

Love, I've compromised with the world

Rather, I've made it compromise with me.

Now it's my choice

of whether

I keep up a rhyming scheme

I only need to please me

---I looked up to see him, and I felt his warmth

A young black dragon stood before me

"We have always been one, you and I."

Upon his belly, I saw scars

Upon his feet, callous and pained,

I saw dried blood

Upon his face...I saw peace

My dragon and I can never be separated

Our bond never severed

He is my muse,

as well he reminds me while I type this for you

And each time I look in the mirror,

there he lays, proud and lazy upon my shoulders

We've lost much, but through our battles, we gained so much more than glory;

me and my imaginary friend.
