A Rescue's Lament
My life before you was so sad
The loneliness haunts me still
Was it my fault?
Was I that bad?
I try not to think about it,
But in my dreams,
The dark demons chase me.
I cry out! I am alone!
Then, there is your hand,
Stroking my head,
Holding my paw
You remind me
I am loved once more
I am no longer alone
Do you wonder why I am here,
By your side?
