I saw a dragon the other day.
Not out in the open,
For the world to see,
But hiding behind the reflection,
when I looked in the mirror,
So that none but me could see it.
It winked at me
As if to say, ‘I’m real, you know’,
then disappeared.
I know it was there,
but I have no proof of its existence,
Not that I could show the world
and have believed.
But that doesn’t matter.
One day it will come out,
And the world will have to be ready.
For the Dragon will come out soaring,
and gliding, and looping the loop,
Exulting in its newfound freedom.
(Though even then,
some people will refuse to believe
even if it comes up to them
and roars in their face.)
One day it will come out,
But in the meantime, it waits,
Patiently, quietly, behind the mirror,
For the time to be right.
No one can see it,
And the World has no clue that it is there.
But I know
Deep in my heart
That the dragon is there,
And it will still be there
Tomorrow.
The world cannot see it,
But maybe, if you look deep into my eyes,
You will catch a glimpse,
Just the tiniest flicker of flame,
And you too will know
That it is there.
