Timid Wolf

 Timid Wolf 

I will continue to be consistent in my willingness to not give up on my poor injured, timid wolf; to earn his trust. 

Injured and afraid, my timid wolf needs to know I am safe, that I will not be one to bring him more pain. 

I am not going to give up, I will not back down; I know there is a long road ahead, earning my timid wolf’s trust is a must. 

Proving I am a safe place, to rest and to heal; showing my timid wolf that he can find shelter within my arms from the rain. 

 

My poor timid wolf has been hurt so badly by so many; he is afraid to let me close; afraid I will damage him more. 

I feel his fear, I understand it and I accept it from my timid wolf, I know this will be a slow process. 

Weeks, month, years; does not matter to me, earning my timid wolf’s trust and love is my goal; helping him overcome what has happened to him before. 

My timid wolf needs to heal, and I plan to prove that I am the one who can help him hurt less. 

 

Skittish and afraid, yet fierce and a formidable adversary, my timid wolf is unwilling to trust the way we feel together. 

My timid wolf wants and needs to be loved, but the damage done by others; causes fear to take hold. 

Those before me, beat my timid wolf down; left him wounded and bleeding; so, the fear is warranted as feelings that have caused him pain, grow for one another. 

I will patiently wait, showing my timid wolf with actions as much as words, that he is safe with me; this love I have for him will never turn cold!
