Sparky the dog

You brought me home as a pup, at first you were nice.

I chased the cat and you hit me. You didn’t think twice.

I was rambunctious, you tied me up to a tree.

I want a round and around, then I couldn’t break free.

I waited and I waited, but no one came for me.

I was so tired and thirsty here. Let me go! Let me be!

For years this went on, but I loved you still.

Then one day I got worms, and you didn’t get me a pill.

Now I am so sick, and I don’t think that you care.

When you need me though, I am always there.

You say that I am man’s best friend..

You say that you love me until the end.

They say never bite the hand that feeds me.

You forget my kibble. No food do I see

Now I’m 10. And angry. And you don’t understand.

So one day you went to pet me, and I bit off your hand.

no matter what happens , Emotions Don’t let.

If you are kind to me, I won’t get upset.

I loved you from the very first day we met.

Remember I’m a living being, not just a pet.

Alone

I am always all alone

Today I had no phone

scared to think had pain been done

No way to reach 911

I died at age 38

My life till then had been great

Stay-at-home mother and wife

No job, no Adventure, no real life

Everything I do is for someone

Never for me, where is the fun?

I am always just here on the floor

There is nothing. nothing in store

Yes, sometimes life seems too tough.

Damn it, I have had enough!

I can’t keep living just for you

Fuck your reality. Mine is true

Sad to say, I say with a groan,

Life sucks, when you are all alone

Grateful

Glad for one more day

Reflecting on which way

All that has happened, and to come

Thoughts flow, and comfort some

Even when lost, I am found

Forever, though, I make no sound

Under every stone, you will find me

let us close our eyes, so we can see
