The Wolf Pt:3
I drift through the woods, dancing and feeling free.
My feet don't touch the ground.
He's calling me
I can't breathe
It's late, the moon is peeking out from behind the clouds, the ominous sky.
I feel the pull.
The leaves become dry, they are now brittle and breaking.
I look around me and they are covering the forest floor.
Death takes over, greens turn to browns and blacks
Decaying.
I touch; it dies
Crumbling in my hands
Something is lingering in the clearing ahead.
I watch through the trees for a moment, curious...
He's standing tall but twitching as if in pain.
I want to move closer, to touch him, to feel him against me to my surprise he's moved past me.
Fluid but gentle
I want to know who he is..
I want to know but is it worth being the prey?
