The serpent in lion's skin by mewmar
There was ones a serpent
Full of insecurity and low self-esteem
This serpent was told to be a great
Warrior but he still was full of fear.
So he neglected himself day by day.
And disguised himself as a lion.
In his heart after all he was a bit kind and strong.
But a serpent will remain such until its death and this the lion knew.
As he grew older, in darkness
He acknowledged himself and became
Involved with another serpent.
A white one not ivory like him.
Such a beauty that a rose compared to him
Was nothing. In the ivory's eyed he was
The only one and will remain the only one
Until they grow old and die.
