Flesh

A spark of a new moon
Fully melted upon the night
No arrows fired
No blood spill
Written down
With a quill
Arrow in the back
Running as far as I can
Four paws into an old shack
Heavy breathing
As I ran
Hunters right behind
I'm one step forward
I lost them
Food I have to find
Stuck within the cold
My story can't be told
As the water flows
Beneath my paws
For I am a wolf
I have many flaws
The sun is ahead
Woods cover me
Nothing has to be said
To know how much I hurt
This is all an example
At how misunderstood some are
How they long to be free
Just out of their reach - too far
A lock but no key
A story now told
A secret to hold
Learn right here and now
That we are what we are
No need to bow
Be free
Be you
Learn out of mistakes
And start anew

If you have something to live for - go for it - if you don't - go find it.
