~ Soul Mates Forever ~
In a wolf pack
they ran together
blessed by The Great Spirit,
their souls locked and mated
forever.
Loyal hearts that none could
sever.
None bothered and no trouble to
see
as they ran wild on the wind
free...
Soul mates together for many a
year,
their loyal hearts knew no fear.
How could their brave spirits
know
one day an enemy would show...
without heart or even much
skill,
and her soul mate, man would
kill.
It was by the bright of day
as their brave hearts tried to
run away...
running fast, but their bodies
tired
her mate was killed with one
shot fired.
With only her around
his lifeless body lay on the
ground...
only his soft fur moved as the
lonely wind blew
by heart and instinct she
knew...
But she could not linger nor
stay
for her own life, she must run
away!
So with a pause and one look
back
she ran on the wind and rejoined
the pack.
Now she stands alone each night
and howls up to the moon's misty
light...
the soulful sound of her cries
lingers on the wind, then dies.
Pain cuts through her soul like
a knife
for the mate she had taken for
life.
Her spirit is broken... but
she'll survive...
The Great Spirit will keep her
alive.
She still runs with the pack
but forever and always looks
back
for a second she pauses ... and
waits
always searching for her lost
soul mate.
