In another life I was a wolf
Running around in
Cold
Deserted
Empty
Hostile places
Ready to take down whoever or whatever stood in the way of my survival
Living by myself
Hunting by myself
Counting on my skills to survive
Because I am fierce
I am strong
I am a wolf
Untouchable
Mezmerizing
Mysterious
Dangerous
I am not gentle nor am I happy
I only have one goal
And I work toward it everyday of my life
Not resting for one second because they count on me
To be strong
To come back home at dawn
To be invincible
I am a wolf
And I have this hunting instinct but also this possessive instinct
I need them to strive and it will only happen if I take care of them
Everyday
I offer them what they need to become strong
To become fierce
To become like their mother
Invincible.
They don't know the fear I experience, or the constant guard up
They know what I choose to show them and they are gullible
They are small
They are fragile
And I need to put up a strong front because they will never grow up
They will never live
If I don't take care of them.
I am a wolf
And I feed my dreams everyday
I hunt opportunites down, I put up a strong front
I reassure them everything will be fine
Because they need to hear it
Because no matter how dangerous life is for dreams
They have a strong wolf to hold on to
Maybe… even… they might end up turning into reality
Because dreams have only one wish
For the wolf to turn into a human
For the human to make them come true.
