Welcome to My life in the shadows



REACHING FOR SUN
 
Out in green forest
a dying wolf bites at his wounds,
howling at moon,
for he knows nothing more to do
in his wildness,
he has no place left in his heart
for love or warmth
shunned from the pack
in his weakness.
 
Buried deep in busy city streets
after war’s bitter end
a young man stabs at his wounds,
nodding off in his pain’s relief
for he knows nothing more to do
in his wildness,
he has no place left in his heart
for love or warmth
shunned from his pack
in his weakness.
 
Home alone, lost within her cold thoughts
a young woman weeps for relief
but finds no sure cure for her pain,
she knows only one thing more to do,
and with her heart
filled full
she falls upon her knees
lifting herself above the fray
for just this one more day
for she knows nothing more to do
loved by her pack
and on this one darkend day
she finds
that love
is enough.
