Howling in Silence: The Witcher's Lament

Aansh

A wolf that doesn't howl, 
Without smile, a clown.
The world is indeed funny
Then why dont I laugh?

The raven sings,
In damp and wind.
Never knowing to shout

The Witcher strides-
He walks they fight,
Never knowing what is right.

So he will cut and burn them,
Bury and mourn them.
Till the grave's out of sight.

And the raven,
Sings along, a sad song;
Never running from fright.

The wolf, it tries.
The clown it cries.
Never knowing what is right.

I lie, I laugh,
pretend I'm not made of glass.
Hide the hurt so that, 
I can smile, sing and clap.

And I feel for the Witcher,
Who walks and strikes.
Lie in wake and
Watch the day as it dies.
