I see a Soul behind your eyes.
Soulful, and
Wholly Loving.
You sometimes lash out, but
It is not your fault.
You are new to this, and I will
Be your guide, no, your Friend.
Jack, you are Brave. You are
Named after your ancestors, who
Won the races they entered
Every time.
You don't know this, but I do.
I, your Friend.
You were trapped by those who
Did not deserve you.
You cannot be
Tamed,
Because your Spirit is forever
Unbroken.
You were not told this until I did,
Your Friend.
Young man, you are
Loved by
So many. Including me.
I will forever protect you,
Not one shall raise a hand against you.
You fear this is not true, but I tell you,
You have a Friend.
Your hesitation is evident,
Especially because
So many call you by
What you were born as,
Not what you Grew Up to be.
Don't fear any longer.
I am your Friend.
Hold on tight, my boy.
Cling onto that Strong Heart of yours.
The one thing they cannot
Take away.
That piece of yourself that you
Kept hidden to all,
Show me.
Your Friend.
I don't care that you are not
Human.
You don't need to be human to be a
Person, with a Personality.
Horses are people too.
We could all do better with understanding this.
You deserve more than what you got
Before you came here.
To your Friend.
I am here.
You don't need me,
But I will be near.
Soulful,
Loving,
Brave,
Spirit Unbroken.
Forever Untamed.

There is so much love expressed in this poem, it must have felt cathartic to write (in the best way). I think your commitment to your Friend is commendable and sweet, and though he may not be able to speak to tell you this himself, I would assume he feels very lucky to have you.
