I can't get up today
I say my dog
Is plastered to my legs she
Warms my legs she
Warms my soul so
I can't get up
No not today
I could stay here
Forever I feel her heart
Beating on my leg I feel her
Chest rising and falling with
Every breath she takes I feel
The love
Radiating off her to me
In this moment
I feel everything
I feel the pain of the world come crashing down although
It doesn't make a sound I feel the children crying the
People dying my heart
Splitting in two my dog oblivious to this zoo
Of emotions pounding in my heart my soul
Screams for reprise my eyes let water seep
Down to my thighs I am
Paralyzed this world is
Falling apart humanity has
No heart but then I look at my dog
And remember that I am here
I am in my bed and the
World has not yet
Come to an end.
