Dragon

At the core of earth
Where no human could go
He lay there guarding the gates
Those are unknown
His dark red armor covers his body
His throat burst out flame
When he is angry
No mercy is shown
To those who trespass his territory
His roar shook the earth
Causing fear and terror
Yet his hearts is tender
With kindness and love
He lay there guarding his fire
Waiting for the day
When his rider would come
Lonely and sad he stayed there
Roaring every year
Wishing his rider would finally hear.
