Falling, running, gliding, I'm going through these cityscapes.
My mind is running with me, alongside me, almost as if I hadn't had anything at all
I run past others
Some blow smoke in my direction
I'm wondering where I'm going,
What I was running from.
I can never seem to remember.
I take a breath and a man welcomes me in. The fire is warm.
He sits down with a drink and calmly questions my activity
And all I can remember is a past memory.
My body, decomposing amongst forest pine
My skull, mossy and cracked
Like cobblestone walls of an enchanted kingdom
Birds stand and make nests on my abandoned and empty shell of what once was my skull
Crystals form on it and my skin glows at night
It's iridescent and impeccable to describe
But I can remember it like yesterday even so.
I remember before I had become this monument of old.
I was at war with a winner I do not ponder to recall

They caught me and controlled my hands whilst undergoing a mind worth of stone and death, attempting at stopping me from stabbing them in vital places.
Cold. It was cold
I remember it was something like winter
Feeling as if I had no center
I lost.
I recall before losing
I threw a blow
A blow that blasted them out to a wall,
Where they laid unconscious and unrecognizable
They woke up later on, to find their victory was true
And to mock their opponent that was once snarling and scratching. Biting at their scales. Teeth bore and pupils slit.
How they glowed with anger.
How they profusely smoked with hatred.
Amongst everything I remembered, something I did not recall was what started this whole war with snowflakes flaring at our flames; our nostrils blowing and puffing with as much smoke as a whole burning town would contain and create.
" Hey, how'd you get those scars, hmm? " The man seemed to question without words but looks and glares of concern and confusion instead.
Silence watching with a gleaming smile, I broke it's teeth with words.
" I used to be a legend, you see. A dragon. You probably will not believe such a statement anyway but you were staring and asking without using sentences or questionnaires. I hope you don't mind my answering your minds wandering wonders. " He...
