"Never let anyone change you" -Unknown


I run through the forest,
Feeling free and moving fast.
Certain nights, I get my full rest,
But not when the full moon hasn't past.

When the moon is full,
I'm in a lot of pain.
Chained up in a cellar feeling cruel,
I hold back my screams and listen to the rain.

My eyes turn gold,
My teeth get sharper.
I stand on four legs, bold,
My growl gets louder and my bite gets harder.

Through that night,
I run and hunt.
I find my snack and bite,
I feel horrible for doing what I've done.

Only when the moon is full,
Will I be such a beast.
A secret hidden in my soul,
And only then shall I feast.

No one feels this pain,
Unless the have this curse.
As human, I can hide this through the day,
But at night, my tears, the burst.

Want to know this beast I am?
For the hints that I have given.
You must understand,
Your mind must not be properly driven.

For I am seen as a myth,
A simple childs tale or fictional creature.
For I'm also in shows with a mix,
This creature wouldn't be taught by a simple teacher.

I am a werewolf,
Not a silly little lie.
I can have a snear look,
But some people simply die.

We are real,
All mythical beasts.
You just can't see how the deal,
With all their flaws so they can feast.

Wow so beautiful and dark in some way. I loved the rhyme scheme it helps moving smoothly through the entire poem. I like it how you started talking and making the reader guess what the creature is. You certainly should carry on it's amazing ^_^ 5/5 :D
