I writhe, I wreathe for I’m neatly twisted,

You’ll never unravel me, my heart unknown.

You hold the tether on my talons tight fisted.

I’m tenacious, a survivor bold,

You can tie me in knots, try to keep me near;

I’ll escape, live without your blackness owned.

I don’t quit; you shouldn’t trap me for fear,

I’ll catch you first, she-wolf who swiftly bites.

Your callous ropes hurt, but I’ll disappear.

Love doesn’t choke, it’s not uninviting,

Love is a freedom, not a smoke screen.

But you’re in my den, I’m growling my spite.

My name isn’t “Sweetheart,” don’t demean me;

Power struggle invoked, within your ropes —

I’ve held dear, but know I’m incharge here.

Droplets of blood, I swear I won’t be broke,

Such a darkness in you raptured by my light.

Goodness will win; she-wolves don’t quit, they’ve hope.

My love, no more traps, let my heart be free,

Your wolf, let her breathe, she’ll return to thee.

I writhe, I wreathe, for I’m neatly twisted.

You hold the tether on my talons, tight fisted.
