Hunting the Wolf

When you find me

     I am an animal

                          And you do not knowingly call

And I pull you

     Grasping on to bones  

You didn't know you had

             I leave the decision up to you

             Change my face

Tell you

             I'm only in love with the moon

   The afternoon

                            Takes you away

                                                         You fade

A vague shape

That warms my cheek

           On a cloudy day

The light I chase

           When I can't sleep

The one I pretend I don't see

                                                                 Even though you've seen

                                                                                Almost all of me
