Heavy are the burdens
of the immortal heart
Doomed to bear witness
to the world's grief
Eternal sentinel from
the very start
After thousands of years,
my eyes see no relief
Oaths made that can
never be broken
I bound myself to watch
and to wait
Listening for words
that are never spoken
To a terrible monster
deserving her fate
I have known more sorrow
than I can measure
An etenity of seeing
men murder and hearing them lie.
Observed in silence
as time robbed the pleasure
Of a lover's first kiss
and a baby's first cry
My heart is heavy with
sorrow, enough to weep for a thousand years.
But this is my oath
and curse, a dragon sheds no tears.

Sheds No Tears" by DreamerSea
