The nights so calm and simple, the moon lighting my path.
Walking the night, with sympathy around me, to find that wrath.

Missing the one I need beside me in this cramped world of broken dreams…
The nights consume the loneliness in my broken scenes..

The world lighting up of a lunar sky…
The water in my mouth getting dry….

As I keep walking knowing time has come for me to rest one last time….
The time has come for my harmony in that rhyme…

I muzzle the moon with my snout…
Preparing to word the words to my route….

The beautiful howl in the midnight sight...
As I complete my midnight fight…

My dreams skim by like a morning breezes…
My sight turns blank like an early freeze…

I lay motionless on the ground…
With out the one by my side….

This poem is about a wolf who's lost his loved one and wants it all back, but he is to old to continue and he slowly passes away.

Wow. This was amazing. It took my breath away, seriously. 

I loved the ending, but i could never pick just one part i liked. I seriously think this should be in the magazine! I really wish i could write like this.
