The Lion
I approach the lion
Getting closer and closer
I walked to it
Accepting my fate
Getting closer and closer
The lion looks up
Accepting my fate
His next meal
The lion looks up
Alert, he sees
His next meal
Coming towards him
Alert, he sees
Something approaching
Coming towards him
Slowly but surely
Something approaching
More than human
Slowly but surely
Less than human
More than human
I started to feel
Less than human
With myself
I started to feel
Unconvinced
With myself
I stopped my approach
Unconvinced
Unsatisfied
I stopped my approach
And I backed away
Unsatisfied
The lion stepped forward
as I backed away
Realizing my mistake
The lion stepped forward
Accepting my fate
Realizing my mistake
I approach the lion
