How do you love a wild one?
With a mind as sharp as broken glass,
Don't ask why she's like this,
You already told her before that she belongs with the trash,
But don't feel sorry for this wild one,
She has learnt to lick her own wounds,
And heal.
Her heart maybe broken but her wit is feral,
And her rage? Yes, she has struggled to conceal,
But here's the deal -
In order to love a wild one you must
Be willing to try and tame her
Don't forsake her, or try to break her
Don't poke at her until she squeels
She's not afraid to fight
And the animal in her loves to bite
To love a wild one is to love a free woman
Courageous and absolute.
