Day 47

My light takes the form of a dog
She has been with me through so much
I love her and worry
She is staying with us 
And I'm grateful for that
Since she came I've felt better
She reminds me of darker times
The times I lived with my mom
My light kept me alive 
Through all the abuse
She may be a dog
But I'm one of her pumps
When thunder happens 
And I am near
She refuses to leave my side
Even though it's her worst fear
When I am not with her
She hide all alone
But she cares for my safety 
More than her own
Just as I care for hers
So thank you my light
For keeping me here
When I no longer want to fight
