My Dog - by Paul Faulkenham

He is gone from my life,
Taking with him all of my heart,
I want him to be home in my arms,
So that we can once again,
Run, talk, and be best friends,

I want to see his pretty face,
That stupid look he had when he smiled,
The ways he got my attention and my love,
Oh God, I miss my dog,

Doesn't anyone understand how I feel,
That by taking my dog away,
It broke my heart, making me cry and wondering why,
That my dog had to die,

Maybe there are reasons that I don't understand,
That losing my best friend was so hard to do,
That there will never be anyone or anything to replace our love,
That only time will make me understand why,
A tear comes to my eyes when I think of him,
My dog, my friend, my pal,
I will never forget you and your love,
Hoping that you took it with you,
Into the heavens above,

That one day I will understand,
With your help,
That I will forgive my dad for what he did,
When he decided that you had to go,
That the day will come when we will once again meet,
You all wet and standing by my feet,
A ball in your mouth ready to play,
Oh God, how I hate this day.

I really miss you Rover,
Xxxooo

Note from Paul

"The poem is the story of a young child who had his pet dog put to sleep by his or her father. I don't go into the reasons as to why the dog was put to sleep, only that the child doesn't understand why his or her father would do such a thing."
