I was aware in the strangest way, For paws, bright eyes, But no words to say, Knowledge replaced by instinct, Tame replaced by wild, I was a beast, No longer a child, But I wasn't afraid, Just so confused, If this was dreams joke, It must be amused, But this felt so real, And so natural, The need to run with my freedom, Clinched in my bones, I wanted to feel my feet, Hit the grass and the stones, I wanted to ****** my head back, And let out a roar, This was freedom, I could not ignore,
