Cold Moon Redemption by Amanda LeMay

Yeah, I’ve done some stupid stuff.
My biggest mistake got me exiled, banished from my pack.
A dark stain I’ll live with the rest of my long, long life.

I was there in the beginning. I tracked the rogues. Warned my pack.
I should’ve caught their scent from miles away.
I’m a wolf. I can do that.
It’s a gift. And a curse.

I saved a life. Actually, two lives.
My transgressions, forgiven.
My exile ended.
Then, the rogues attacked.
I should’ve smelled them coming. I could’ve saved so many more lives.
But I failed.

Deep in my soul, I know forgiveness isn’t the only thing I need.
Though it’s freely given, I haven’t earned it.
Do I seek redemption? You betcha.
I’ll do whatever it takes.
I’m not worthy. At least, not yet.
But I’m working on it.
