The Twinkle In My Eye

i gave birth to an idea today
its heart was blue
its eyes were grey.

i thought i heard a moan
but it was more of a keening wale.
the dragon inside me speaks true
the tales i cannot tell.

one day they'll see my other side.
not a woman who is smart
or strong or filled with pride,
but the beast in me
with a dragons heart.

wings that spread and take to flight,
eyes that pierce the darkest night.
a roar to make my will be known,
and an endless light
that no man owns.
