Day by day I wait
but, you never arrive.
What did I do to
deserve all this torture?
I still sit on the
side of the road where you first left me ...
Will you return? I
believed you would. Did you? No.
I thought, maybe,
you just dropped me here to stay for a few minutes.
You opened the car
door and got me out ... But, then you didn't come.
You slammed the
car door and drove off, leaving me behind.
I am greet by
unfamiliar and unfriendly obstacles.
Where is my
saviour? I thought you cared.
But, who wants me
now? A traumatized, rib thin, bloody wounded dog belongs nowhere.
I had done nothing
wrong. How could you leave me here?
My shattered heart
dosn't want to live.
Why didn't you
just shoot me instead of making me suffer so much neglect?
I didn't know what
it was to feel so alone.
I'm by myself more
then you could know. If only you were alone.
I remember the
first time we met.
I was a bouncy
puppy hopping around with no problems.
I remember you
picked me up and said "your mine Max".
I miss your voice.
Your soothing voice that made all the pain go away.
You took me home
and fixed me up. I loved you so much. Life was good.
The time I ripped
up your couch and you tried to yell at me but, laughed and ended up hugging me.
I was lonely when
we first met. Since you moved out of your parents house with me into a small,
dirty apartment and had no time for me.
I was exited and
you were bored. "Shut up dog!" She had forgotten my name.
"Shut the
**** up you filthy mutt!" You yelled after.
I heard you
swearing under your breath about "that stupid dog" and the love was
gone.
You grabbed my collar
and shoved me into the car.
Driving through
the darkness, I could sense something was wrong.
You were speeding
and then we came to a stop.
The door opened
and then you pushed me out.
Then you sped
away. I waited.
Why didn't you
come out? Did I do something wrong?
I was broken, you
left me.
I had to adjust to
the few amounts of food.
A muffin liner, a
banana peel, anything I could find became the meal of the day.
My bed was the
ground. Or a trash bag.
Nobody wanted me
and when people with ANIMAL CONTROL printed on their shirts came, I ran.
Even thought I
could've found another master, I didn't want anybody else.
If I couldn't
have, then I didn't want to have anybody.
I spend my nights
at the same spot you dumped me out at.
I still believe
you'll come. You'll realize what a sick-minded mistake you made and get me.
My hair is falling
out and my muzzle is turning white and gray.
I've lost my
glossy puppy coat and exchanged it for a course, wired, thin fur coat that doesn’t
warm me.
I am covered in
feces and mud.
My hips are
starting to hurt and my knees are cramped up terribly.
I still drag myself
to the same spot you left me.
No matter what
after 10 years of abandonment I still believe that you will come here and be
mine.
So please come get
me. I'm gonna die soon and I want my last moments of breath with you. I need
you more right now then I ever did!!!!
