I am a wolf,

  A scared wolf...

I walk in the shadows,

  Hoping not to be slain...

My family is dead,

  My territory, my home, was taken!

I couldn't defeat them all,

  There were just too many...

So I hide,

  Hide from the killers!

I am a wolf,

  A lonely wolf...

Will no one understand?

  I to, have a life that i wish too keep...

I to, have precious things...!

  I to, have the permission to live here on this Earth!

You humans are cruel and heartless!

  It isn't possible for you to care anything about us!

We kill because you kill us...!

  You are the true predators, the true killers...

I am a wolf,

  Will I always be misunderstood?...

Very heartfelt defense of the beautiful animal that the wolf is. They are protected in certain areas, but no doubt their natural habitat is threatened and often out of balance. So when they are hungry they dare come closer ...

Very good job, dear Echo bleu.

Love the picture! And I'm a wolf fan all the way so when I think about them being threatened and killed I get chills up my spine and my heart races...they're good creatures, some people just don't understand them that's all, I guess...
