For years I knew your would-be caretakers,
I knew the sport they would groom you for.
The day you were born the world seemed a bit more bright.
I found myself incapable of wandering any further.
Your beautiful opal eyes.
So curious and clean.
You deserved not the fate they would have for you.
I wanted to take you from them,
To have you under my wing.
The first time in my wretched, worthless life
that I saw fit to take this responsibility.
I wanted to show you the world beyond those walls.
Where the bite of the chilling winds were as only to the skin.
Than the knives they would have driven you,
Deeper than any claw or fang could pry.
I was going to take you to the great mountain I escaped to.
To become my own free dragon.
It seems as though that dream is quickly pouring,
As swiftly as those hot streaks down my side.
An abhorred crime I have comitted.
To "rob you of class and power".
They would stop me from keeping you safe from the subtle greed,
Those disgusting hungers only another could have for you...
Just a little bit further.
I have suffered worse.
I will protect you.
My wings can no longer carry me.
But I shall carry you.
Steep is the hillside.
Ducking beneath canopies.
They hunt me from above.
My legs refuse to lift my chest any further.
But I must, it is so close.
Your freedom is near as could be.
My heartbeat.
I cannot seem to catch my breath.
How long have I been laying here?
It's cold...
The rain?
Just like the night I managed my escape.
They wont catch our trail now.
I just need... to rest.
Rest...

It is very sad to see this, but it.. it is so moving to find my lover can again and again show just how much he cares, how far he is willing to go. That deepest compassion which never has a limit, no matter what happens. No matter the truths I kept from him, how much I stumble, my lack of communication skills.
I break your heart at times, and sometimes I forget just how deep your love for me is, how far you've come and all you have done for me. To keep me happy, and comfortable.
I love you... Thank you for carrying me.
