A lone wolf

50 3 4
                                    

I stand tall, proud, unbreakable


Upon the cliff that guards


My kin and brothers


My mate and cubs




They are my existence


My reason for roaming


But yet, I stand alone


My back paws on the edge




In front stands my brother


I howl in confusion


Why does he approach


So stiff, so aggressive 




I see it in his golden eyes


They depict his feats


Brought up an outcast


He became a fiend 




But I allowed him in


My pack, his pack


Only, he desired much more


Too much - my mate




Golden and fierce, brave and loyal


He choose to fight me squarely


In view of all, to win


Such a prize as her




So I stood tall, proud, unbreakable


And fell
, defeated,

I was left 


A lone wolf, packless
