grief.
on a cold october morning
where rain fell and thunder mourning
screams for my name rang out
what i saw was horrible no doubt
you were hanging by your collar
limp and lifeless , eyes with no colour
i took you down and pumped your heart
an attempt so futile on my part
rain started pouring down within
you were beside me but not breathing
i stroke your hair and lament your loss
and grief overtook me for this cause.
i wish i could see you smile once more
and wag your tail or drool on the floor
now you're gone and left me behind
when i needed you the most you decline
who's there for me to hold when i'm down
to lick me and pull me from sadness i drowned
to bark at strangers who pissed us off
to warn us of rain and so forth
the picture of you hanging
haunts me as i see you dangling
i failed as your beloved owner
i'm better off as a loner
brave brother rusty
your departure sure is costly
may God bless your kindred soul
your loving kindness thats so bold
my soul and spirit you crushed
i'm feeling down and flushed
seeing you in the grey plastic bag
was painer then the strongest jab
i'm lost and forlorn
i'm twisted with thorns
because you're gone
but i still cant say so long
peace be with you good pal
may your afterlife never be vile
i'm in giref and anguish
because you were vanquished
remember me in heaven above
watch over me i pray like a dove
i miss you i love you rusty

My best friend rusty
As I opened the door
and stepped to the corridor
i feel two curious eyes
Constantly watching in disguise
His tail started to flap
Around and around a flag
His ears perk up and he looks at you
With eyes you always find new
His gleeful face when being pet
Traps my heart into his net
His simple joy of going out
Never seemed to be blown out
When sadness overtook me whole
He was there for me to hold
When all had given up on me
He licked my hand and made me free
The gentle creature whom I adore
Ferocious at strangers at the door
Like a lion he barks to let them know
He’s here so they can’t make us low
His heart so pure and love so true
His hungry face that always drools
He never ever belittled me
He always filled my heart with glee
But now I have to let you go
I cant bear to, you’re more than gold
The thought of you going away
Makes the blue areas grey
Will I never see you again
Wish it all never began
The feeling of loosing a loved one
Hurts more then being gunned
Remember me my good friend
When you’re away and cramped
Your golden hair and scent so musky
Be happy my best friend rusty.
Goodbye my pal... goodbye.
