Wolf

The moment that I met you,

My life changed forever.

I thought it was because of love,

But you were oh, so clever.

Months went by too quickly,

You treated me like a queen.

I now know your secrets,

That you thought had gone unseen.

I finally felt special,

Even though I understand -

Everything you said was a lie,

It's all going as you planned.

Slowly, fear took over love,

I backed into a wall.

Disgusted, I stayed while knowing,

You never cared at all.

I'm stuck in the middle,

Of your painfully sick game.

I cannot cry out for help,

While choking on my shame.

The old me is unrecognizable,

Young eyes burdened with pain.

I must maneuver through this maze,

To find myself again.

I'm beginning to exhaust myself,

Just trying to be strong.

At what point can I stop,

And try to move along?

For now I'm still a doll,

Hidden inside your box.

Wait a while and you may find,

You aren't the only fox.
