I got myself a puppy
On the 14th of Feb
Because I
Was lonely,ay
I called it Love
And enveloped it in my arms
The moment it was placed in my hands
Love was young
It was fragile
Weak
Yet it had the soul of something
So pure
I almost couldn't breathe
Love was the best thing that happened
Everyday
I swore to keep Love by my side
How precious
Love would enter my life
I held Love by the leash
Making sure it was mine;
Only mine
Never lost or wandering
And calling it back home
When the sun was back in bed
"Love! I'm here!"
As if Love would understand
But it did
And it would leap into my arms
Nuzzling against my cheek
I loved Love
Who doesn't love Love
Yet at the same time
Love gave me pain
And it was tiresome to keep Love
I found myself doing none of the above
Because Love kept running away
And I was alone
Once again
