Deep in a forest a lone wolf searches for answers.
He passes other animals by as if unseen. They call out, try to help but the proud wolf refuses their very existence.
Days pass and the wolf finds himself cold and alone in a dark forest.
He cries out in pain, but the only sound that answers him is the beating of his lonely heart.
The wolf lays near a pond and glances into the water. And he finds all the answers he has been searching for.
He glances around, looking for someone to share his newfound wealth with, but no one can be seen. No one longer cares, for the wolf passed them by without a second glance. The wolf than realizes that he lost something in order to find another.
He lost friends in order to find himself.
And once again the wolf lies cold and alone in the dark emptiness of a crowded forest.

I was very worried about posting my work for all to see, but I am glad I have, for I feel more confident within myself.
Thank you DreamEvil
