Oh dragon of anguished anger, You destroy my mind invade my thoughts, And try to slaughter anything good within me... You creep slowly in the night, Catching your victim unaware. Your iron-grip holds my soul, Almost too much to bear� Just when I begin to feel safe, Feet planted on stable ground, You return to remind me You are ever lurking below the surface. Dragon of my tormented mind, A safe haven is all that I seek, A true resting place of piece and calm, And just when I think I have found this You return and burn it all away. Leave me staggering and stunned, Striving to cope and continue, You have no care for the fragility of the heart. To you this matters not... But I must survive to live yet one more day. So I wage the endless battle only to stalemate. Yet there is no other choice but to struggle For in this m�l�e I discover my inner power, And that you can never capture or slay... Catherine MacDonald (c) February 2005 �

Nice piece, Catherine. One wonders if you might be an empath.

What a good job you have done of pinpointing a dilemma
that, whether we admit it or not, every one of us faces -- how to defeat our inner demons! Thank all that is good and holy that
the Power is also in there. Chafing to be allowed out so it
can help us save ourselves. Wise words, my friend. Wise words.

This is very interesting..........dragons in old Celtic lore were thought to be wise......
and in some cultures protectors, and others destroyers

I guess its all in how you let those thoughts into your mind
and which ones!
very good write

I can relate to this very well, Cathering. I refer to my "demon" as "the stalker. I find your poem very compelling. I also love the way you end with hope and determination. Love and peace. Regis

I think that Mary hit upon what I wanted to say and also agree that you have done well with your imagery.

It is always by trials and tribulations that we find that inner strength within us, urging us onward. I love the imagery within your poem. Nicely done.
