The Wolf

It casts a shadow, fearsome and demands respect

A silent figure that walks with confidence through the night

Piercing eyes, a loud voice, proud, overwhelming intellect

Impossible to tell if it'll walk the path of shadows or light

The towering and majestic creature prowls in circles, ever so silent

The wolf lays at the fork where the paths part

It turns to me and stares, appearing submissive, compliant

A moment passed, then another, and I finally realized it's been true since the start

The wolf isn't a creature that is dominant over me

The wolf is no higher or lower, it's simply there

It is simply everything I strive to be

I realize this as I meet its powerful stare
