A Wolf's Tale

I am a wolf who is hunting alone.
Following a scent that leads me into the unknown.
I was curious and got separated from my pack.
Feeling hungry, I was looking for a quick snack.
Unfamiliar with the territory around me.
Was I suppose to be alone? Is this my destiny?
I look out for myself so that I may survive.
This scent I have been following, I hope it's worth the prize.
 Until I come to a cliff and I see what it is.
In this bushes I see them, a mother and two kids.
They seem lost away from their home.
Making a choice, I show them which way to go.
Seeing the humans together reminds me of my kind.
I should track them soon, I hope they aren't hard to find.
Stumbling on creek, drink the cool water quenches my thirst.
Stomach is growling so much that it hurts.
Fate provides me a meal, without hesitation I take it.
Howling at the moon , God I am grateful.
I know that one day I will find a mate.
Leading my own pack maybe one day.
The journey continues not giving in.
Doesn't matter how long it takes, I will run or swim.
Not everything works out the way it suppose to be.
The weather may change, but in the end I will still be me.
