Werewolf, a Rebirth


The clouds were moving swiftly
across the darkened sky
The howling wind raced through the trees
the leaves were flying by

His heart was beating like a drum
that pounded in his chest
Trying to release the demon
long ago at rest

His body started to convulse
it shook without control
In one more minute he would lose
the last part of his soul

Transformed into a savage
with no logic and no reason
A cursed abomination
he is doomed through every season

Now the man is gone
and in his place there stands a beast
The darkest part inside of him
once hidden, now released

The creature howled out at the moon
a tear was in his eye
Because inside the monster 
lives a man who still can cry
