i am

i am free yet trapped

i am alpha yet a lone wolf

i am me yet i am more

trapped to mortality 

wolf with human skin

 more than the eye can see

mortality is my weakness

skin so confining 

see my horror 

weakness of life

confining to anyone

horror of all our dreams

[Calissa Knox]

I think we all want others to see the strength that is within us. This is a powerful poem with strong emotion. It had a triumphant feel to it, especially the ending stanza. I really liked it.
