Leader of the Pack by Suzan

he walks away
from the fold
out into the cold
as the others
look below

the lone wolf
this leader
of the pack
will he find
what he seeks
or sit and quietly
speak

leader of the pack
find your way
back
this is not
your track to follow
out into the
cold, cold shallow

leader of the pack
the others need
your wisdom
as you walk away
into the night

leader of the pack
the light is
pulling you back
repeat
as you take
a last look
and prepare
for the first step
