I Need You

Wait Coyote...I need to get some air...give me awhile, then you can tell me your tale...and Red walked out into the fresh air...
Sam... Sam...I need you...Red had went out for a long walk to look for Sam...she needed someone to talk to and he was the only one she trusted anymore...Sam....Sam...where are you?
Here I am Red...I told you I would be around when you needed me...what's up?
Everything Sam....I found this Coyote, or he found me, not really sure which...ever hear of him?

Oh, yes Red...be careful of that one...he is full of tricks...

I thought so...he tried to "cure" me....but it didn't work...he thinks it did, but I still feel all this stuff inside...it didn't go away...the hurt...the broken pieces...if anything he made it all fresh and raw inside...

You keep it all within you Red...it will always be there... sometimes buried so deep you don't feel it as much...but it will be there forever...Coyote brought it to the surface...he is full of himself ..thinks he can convince anyone how great and powerful he is...

But it didn't work on me Sam...why?

Because you are different...you feel things different...know things others don't...love deeper than most...

But I wanted it to work...it should have worked....but I still feel it all...my inside is a tangled mess...how can I make it all go away, Sam?

It won't Red...you just have to learn to live with it...you've been doing pretty good...let well enough alone...tried to start writing about your life now...continue that...write about Coyote...the story of the two of you...I know it's only begun, but there is a story there...you might be surprised how it ends...
I tried writing again Sam....about Coyote and me, but it isn't the same...
It's not supposed to be Red...every story is different...every love is different...don't tell my you don't have any feelings for Coyote?
I guess so, Sam...but...
But nothing Red...write...every day for now...give it a chance and see what happens...
Okay, Sam...but what about all this stuff inside...the hurt and pain? I want it to go away for good...
Then forgive...forgive and love with all your heart and soul...
I don't understand Sam?
Forgive Wolf...the Lion...prince...frog...whatever you wish to call  him...forgive him...
Forgive him?
Yes, Red...forgive
And then?
Love...simply love..believe again...in the power of love...believe in him...it doesn't matter if he doesn't feel the same...it's what is inside of you that matters...so if you forgive and love again...no matter what your outer world looks like...you will heal yourself...after all Red...you are the only one who can heal yourself....just like he is the only one who can heal himself...
Hmm....Sam, I think you have something there...okay...I'll work on this forgiveness thing and I'll start writing everyday... and I'll see what happens with Coyote...
Good, Red and I can tell you one thing...you are in for quite a ride...enjoy life...never know where you'll end up...
Thanks Sam, I'll start working on that writing...first off will be a letter of forgiveness to him...
That's my girl...
 Red hugged him and turned to go back to Coyote....
