It breaks my heart to see your pain
Sunshine obscured with bleakest rain.
I see the tears in your brown eyes.
Your  smiles mingle with smothered sighs.

And when with me you try to play
It's like your thoughts are far away!
You carry such a heavy load,
Yet never once to me act cold.

Every day you clean and cook,
Your sorrow some unwritten book.
Sunshine dissolved in clouds of grey
The day you gave your pets away.
