I wish I had a dogs paw to cry upon
One year to the date you stopped a car
With your curious wiles & hurried paws
Unhinged by the possible absence of you
I cry at the truth of the matter
Rooted in misery & mire
Your silent honey eyes beg for me
Confused & bewildered
Collision course as you made your way through dark avenues
****** paw prints on snow
Wicked is the feeling of sorrow
Of impending doom
The day you almost died changed me
Stay with me until Eternity's Eve
