Hiraeth: Welsh for a deep, wistful, nostalgic sense of longing for home; a home that is no longer, or perhaps never was. A yearning and wistful grief for people and things long gone.
Feral, potent, divine
They do not blend well
But, for you,
They're the perfect ones
Dominant, destructive, protector
You are
Your amber eyes
Beautiful and wise
'The Wolf' I once called you
I still remember
How you smiled
When I told you useless tales
Of my life
That you'd probably forget
I still remember
Your passionate eyes
How they'd glow in anger
When I'd shed a tear
I still remember
That time
You held me
To make up
For our problems
And calm our souls
You are my Lupus Deus
The one
And the only
So surreal
I feel like the moon
Whom you preach
The divinity
In our serenity
You are my moon
Dear wolf
Under your care
I wish to be
It is your face
I wish to see
Smiling at me
When my breath
Leaves my body
When I go
To The Land Of No Return
Where
I wait
For your soul
To arrive
Forgetting
You're immortal
As my soul
Ages and dies
For you
Never will
