Nothing To Say
Just shut up.
How is there nothing to say
To someone who you would want to
Bare your heart to
Does this person already know everything
Or is it just easier to keep them in the dark?
Unaware of the noise in your head
So you don’t disrupt the noise in theirs
You tell yourself maybe they don’t care
You’re not exactly wrong...
They don’t.
All they want is the voices in their head
To run around their minds
The only cardio they’ll get.
They keep others shut out
Unaware that all they’re doing
Is making the other close up instead.

She loves me
She loved me. When I was small and my wee stayed to the paper. When I was rumpled skin and floppy big paws and big eyes looking up and waiting for her hands to find me, scooping me up and bringing me into her. And we were happy, so happy, so very, very happy. I was so happy to see her and danced my circles so she'd know how much I wanted nothing more than for her to hold me. I'd wrap, wiggle, wiggle and wrap my growing body with my bestest happy dance, slumping and kerplumping into her warm parts just like she liked me to. She was there and I was there, and we were there together, and it was perfect. Oh, how she loved me! We spent all our time together, playing inside, outside, up, down, going round and round. And she petted me and called me good girl when I made poops, and sometimes when I weed in her front yard or the neighbor's, and I was the best girl. For her, I really was! And she scratched me behind my ears, and it was heaven. I aowooo my joy! And she aowoooed hers too.
