YOUR EYES

So deep chocolate brown

*

It was a rough day.

There are times when work is an enjoyable breeze for the hours I’m there.

Then there are times when it’s a grueling, exhausting, frustrating day.

Today was one of those days.

And yet, when I came home, there you were.

Waiting at the door for me.

Love in your eyes.

A happy smile on your face.

My heart was warmed just by having you here.

You are my best friend.

I can always tell you my troubles.

You never get impatient and walk away.

You quietly sit next me and allow me to speak my heart’s mind.

I don’t know what I’d do without you.

You, my love.

I wrap my arms around you, lower my head.

While I stare into your soft, deep chocolate brown eyes,

You lovingly lick my cheek.

You make me know that all is well.

My love. My pet. My puppy.
