Big Brown Eye's look up at me,
I feel my heart breaking.
I stroke soft black fur,
and promise the world to him.
He Raises his little head and licks my hand,
Tears pour down my face.
'If you live I swear i will keep you'
I promise, I'll keep him with his other brother and sister.
I look into deep brown eyes knowing the truth.
I see him accept his little puppy fate,
My heart breaks as I watch him lay his head down.
I tell him I will be back,
He looks up at me one last time.
I wind up the music box,
I set it down and leave the room.
An hour later I return,
His eyes are open he isn't breathing.
I fall to my knee's his eyes areunseeing,
He was alone when he died and he seemed to have been looking up at the little music box.
Tears well up in my eyes and burn as they fall,
I stroke his warm little body knowing
it wasn't long ago that he died.
I know it's painful to be alone when your scared,
I know its scarey when your young but I know he wasn't alone.
