Wild Child

Born of a beast,

I had no choice.

Into a world, where

My life will not be mine.

Lacking wisdom:

Nature is on my side.

It calls me out to be seen,

For what I can offer;

Never for what to expect.

Since I am too shy,

All day I will hide.

Nights are risky,

Still, I give them a try.

I'm not sure where I belong;

I know it's not here,

And maybe not there.

Somehow this all feels pointless.

Lacking wisdom:

I'm not sure what to do.

Life sure is tricky,

Being an orphaned, prey,

Navigating the wild.
