Howling At Love

Howling
Like the wolf cries
Screaming foreboding skies
Yelling for your love till sunrise
The erring echoes of your love reprise
Tangled tears that follow surmise
Bitter sorrows capsize
With empty eyes
Howling

great imagery here. I really like it. Have you heard of the new movie, Alpha? About the first time the wolf becomes a domesticated "man's best friend?" It's really good and this made me think of it.
