Wolf

Wolf

Your appearance
camouflaged
in sheep’s clothing
I was the fool 
I thought 
you were inspiring
lifting me to greater heights
Was I not your jewel?
 
Luring me to
places I had never gone
Opening my eyes
to a world of glamour
I was warned
of your heretic ways
Going against my beliefs
Ignoring the clamor
 
Living in blindness
Blinkered from the world
Unaware
of the coming pain
Used and abused
Without even realizing
Reaching the zenith
Time to break the chain
