Tonight I looked
my dog in her tiny
cosmic-marble eyes
and for a moment
I felt like we both
understood that our
love here and now
is temporary and
rash
We've talked about
how the weather ails
her old bones and
what happens when she
passes and leaves me
behind
I wish she knew how
much I truly cherish
her
