Denial

There once was a maiden so lovely and Fair
Set out in life with a hope and a prayer

She came upon a beast of fire and Flame
What a Pity; she thought it could be tame

Tried as she did she could not restrain
The beast and its will Could not be slain

The day did come the beast arose
Casting aside its bounds with mighty blows

Spells were woven as visions came
Sadness, grief, love and shame

Anger, Happiness, Hatred and Passion
Emotions washed over her in a wave-like fashion

Utterly spent by everything she felt
Before the Beast she respectfully knelt

Openly she admitted what she did was wrong
To hold the beast captive for so long

She promised to exist in the same land
For without the beast life would be bland

Agreeing, the beast promised to entwine
Her soul to whatever the beast had in mind.

The moral of this story is perfectly clear
Not to cage such a beast, just out of fear
