Wolf

Lonley wolf, howling at the moon,
for a long lost love,
that he is to never find again,
once allowed to slip away,
for foolish pride,
yet alone again now paying the price.

Dark skies and gray clouds from the past,
invading a new found life,
never ending rain,
pouring down everyday,
living without life,
mourning without tears,
breathing without lungs.

The wind whispers its secrets,
of a new love in the midst,
truth sinks in deep,
her heart now belongs to another,
the lonley wolf begins to weep.

Thrown away and pushed aside,
yet now lives a happy life,
as the once strong one,
now realizes his strength came from his fears,

Shivering in the coldness of reality,
slinking back into the shadows of the past,
where so doomed to spend for eternity.
