To Him

A poem to an unrequited love. Lets get wild

I want to be an animal with you.

Gnash your teeth and tear your clothes away,

We don’t need simplistic ideas like society and humanity.

Roll in the mud with me,

Sharpen your claws on rocks and trees.

Be free

With me.

Let your coat grow out wild and crazy

So it catches on every gnarled brush me run through.

Dance on bare feet, dirty and kicking up dust.

Dance to the sounds of the forest,

From every caw to every drop of rain.

Be free

With me.

An when you’re old and sickly,

I will protect you from predators.

My mate,

My love,

Be free

With me.
