Everyone of us
Have dragons to be fought,
A bad habit, an addiction,
A weakness we have got.
Some dragons are dauntingly huge,
While others are quite small.
Some appear so fierce and strong,
Others just annoying, that's all.
Like a giant dragon
When addiction we fight,
It's ferociously strong
It takes us all our might.
A little annoying dragon
A bad habit may be,
It takes some conscious effort
For us to make it flee.
We spend our lifetime fighting,
Weaknesses we blame,
For everyone of us
Have dragons to be tamed.
