They say you found me
\nAt a crossroads unmarked
\nBut a split all the same
\nThe child born for a civilized world
\nAnd the daughter raised by wolves<\/p>\n
They say I was savage
\nI did not know I had hands
\nOnly teeth to get my way
\nI fought for all I wanted
\nEven if it meant fighting you<\/p>\n
They say I had hair like tendrils
\nA mass of wild tree branches
\nTangled in my curls
\nUntamed by mans hands
\nBut still gentle under yours<\/p>\n
They say I had eyes like emeralds
\nThat shone with a feral gleam
\nThe wolves hungry stare
\nHaunting your every step
\nCould always find you in the dark<\/p>\n
They say I had lips red and bright
\nLike blood newly spilt
\nLips that curled like burning paper
\nSmiling with a knowing smirk
\nThat could only belong to the wild<\/p>\n
They say I had skin like ivory
\nDesired yet cold and hard
\nThe prize that wasn\u2019t what it seemed
\nSo full of life yet unliving
\nAn ivory statue for a child<\/p>\n
They say you should have left me there
\nFor nature to dispose of
\nThat I belonged to the wild
\nAnd not a house to come home to
\nTo leave me there at the crossroads<\/p>\n
The wolves taught me to survive
\nBut you taught me to love
\nThe wild taught me to be cold
\nBut you taught me there was more to life
\nThan the fight for life I always lived<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
