Dragon Bunnies

Something I wrote for a friend's school project

"To have power. To be feared. To show no weakness. That is a mans true goal. I am a beast with the body of a dragon and the soul of a bunny. The dragons scales are impenetrable, his eyes fierce, his stature terrifying. The dragon embraces his body and power it wields. He loves the destruction that is wrought by his mere breath. All of this, though, does nothing to fill his inner void. The soul inside is trapped. She is comforting, caring, cute, and beautiful. The dragon knows that to show any sign of his true nature would be the death of him. His enemies would use this knowledge as a weapon to bring forth his downfall. The dragons only true desire is not to be all powerful, but to only be able to show his soul to the world without sacrificing his image of a force to be reckoned with. He longs for only to show his true self without his enemies trying to force their swords into his back. For now, though, it is sadly just a dream and he must push his inner rabbit aside so he can carry on another day, even though the torment will continue till the very day he is slain."
