Poet - Moon Child

I never tell anyone,

About that night when I’m ambushed by that horrific creature

When the bite burnt and my blood angry under my skin

I don’t tell no one, ‘cause I thought it was nothing

I thought it will pass.

Then I start getting nightmares

Night after night it keeps getting worse

The kind of conscious dreams but dumbfounded

I can’t wake until I scream and the sweat plastering my body

I don’t tell anyone, ‘cause it will sound gay

A male teenager with constant nightmare, it’s embarrassing

I know something is wrong with me now

Definitely wrong

I got angry so easily and feel like I want to growl

I’m attached to the moon that every night I never sleep

I watch the crescent, feeling an inexplicable longing

But also felt extremely scared

But now, in this full moon

I sense the world is changing around me

I feel pain over my body, my skins hot and felt so…

So small…

I’m so powerful I don’t know why

I don’t like the feel of my body, it doesn’t fit

I feel a strange force to left my flesh

I need to stop this pain; I need to let it flow

Finally when the pain pass, I try woke up

I walk and see the full moon with my sharp eyes

Then I stopped, Why did I crawl?

Why did I have four leg?

But instead of foot I see a big paw

I’m shocked and then I heard a small whine

Even more shocked when I know it’s mine

I run fast and silent to the water I located with my nose

When the moonbeam reflect the river like a mirror

I know it’s too late

I still remember very clearly the huge wolf that bite me that night

Now I looked at the reflection and I see the same look in mine

Now, whenever the moon pulse
I answer with a husky howl
