I awaken to darkness, but know all is right

I sense your presence through all of the night

I see you arise, moving slow and unsure

I go to your side, my love for you is pure

But you push me away, without even a care

But I stay by your side, waiting to you

But you see right through me, as if I’m not even there

I wait ever patient, for your love and your care

As you wash and you clean, I watch with some cheer

Wanting to be with you, wanting to be near

But you walk out the door, not saying goodbye

I go sit by the window, sit and let out a sigh

Sitting all day, I wait with ease

Knowing you’ll come back, it takes so little to please

As the day goes along, I wait and I cry

Then suddenly you come, my heart begins to fly

I rush to your entrance, so happy am I

But all I hear is keep away, it’s been to rough a day

So I sit down and wait, as you sit there and scowl

Tomorrow is yet another day, for you to give me your love.



Such is the life of a dog
