Dancing in Shadow
I know my beast is the wolf, what is hers?
my love’s under the moon.
she hides in a place between star light and the blue mist
where she dances and sings
my wolf searches the night for his shadow
she that is bound to his gait
he never sees her she never sees him
they feel each other’s presence they know…
He leaps at the Moon sensing her near, looking for her warmth
Sadly she turns away
she loves her wolf she fears their separation
The wolf wounded in heart howls. He knows his love’s longing
His pain breaks her resolve
She must come out for him. She warms him with her glow
He loves her at first sight knowing she is his heart’s desire
Her glow intensifies his howl rumbles from it’s depths
they mirror one another’s love
He runs with her in the freedom of the night
they bask in the delights of the shadows
She howls at him. He shines for her
They are one
bound in each other’s heart, under the moon, for all time
