She

She waits for me to get better.
She waits for far too long.
She waits for life to get better
and not be so alone

He stands and looks at the sunrise
He stands and looks back home
He stands and turns from the sunrise
his work is not yet done

An ocean between them
but one cold wind blows
When one heart shivers
the other seems to know.

She keeps the orchard and hearthstone
The fire bright and warm
When that ragged sailor returns there
I'll finally be at home.

What happens when you see me weak? What happens when I fail? What happens when the dragon shuffles? What happens when you touch his scales? I know a dragon rests inside me, and with spells I give it sleep. And although it flags and drains me a watch on him I'll always keep. Does it scare you that he's hungry? In the dark and dying light? Does it scare you that the binding Might not last another night? With chant and chains and loving words I hold the beast at bay. And feel the warming of the sun, We live another day.

Watching the world fall apart from the back of my canoe. I'd let the sea kill me before any of you. Donald Trump and his party,  Russia, Brexit and drones, I know I am safest when I'm all alone. With the cougars and bears I know them by name, but rich men in groups are hardly as tame. So if travelling you seek me Go look for the fish There you will find me with all that I wish.
