Once

…
His hair was shorter then,
before the dragon. Before
he caved to the wiles of
woman, and wild of sky.

Before the sword fell
into sheath for good, and
the woods swallowed them
all whole, happily.

Ever.
………………After.

    This feels very real. Nicely done.

    Isn’t “dragon” some sort of drug terminology? That’s what this makes me think of … your ex. 😦

    The love of a good woman will slay a dragon. From then on, he’s just a drag.
