wolf

poster child for disaster

she didn't mean for it to end this way
lies tangled up in tongues just like words caught in throats
sharp nails like claws tearing away at what could have been

she watched nonetheless, arms folded and tears streaming down her face
it wasn't her fault, though deep down she knew it was
humans wreaking havoc upon every being, blood spilling from their sweaty, lying palms

and she watched it all happen in the blink of an eye
