The lion and the lamb

Into the jaws of the beast so naive

Lured by honey sweet platonic love

I was the hunted lamb

I teetered I tripped and I fell

For years I tumbled

Scratching and spitting useless venom

But I coudn't be destroyed that easy

I built a fortress around myself

Licked my swollen wounds

Rose from the ashes

Now I am the lion and by God I will roar
