Running through the trees
On paths I’ve known before
Listening to footfalls
Calling out my name
Feel of the wolves
Nipping at my heals
Chasing down the innocent
And guilty alike
Hear them howl
Claiming victory
Tearing at my flesh
Feeding their lusts
Blood draining from my flesh
Wounds more than skin
Feel the pain ebbing
As they dig in
Nothing left but bones
When their feeding is done
Just a memory of the man
I used to be
Hear my voice
Echo hauntingly
Through the winter night
Calling out to those in need
Before they succumb to the same defeat
Come, children of the night
Listen to the voice
That calls out to your soul
Come, live in the light
