I got the bad leash
On the morning of Friday, roughly 12:15
And the cats were out
Walking all around the garage about
You saw little one seconds before I did
Regardless from my hands you fled
Straight into the corn field
With the snapped leash I'd wield
And you were just gone
Away from me like a mother from a stolen fawn
Like a beached fish from a pond
Like sleep thinking of your lack of peace on the worst day ever
I thought I'd lost you forever
Trapped in barbed wire
You were found not half an hour later my mother no liar
While I screamed and bled my throat hoarse
And sobbed and cried my voice sore
Thinking you were lost
Wondering just how bad the cost
Someone found you still searching for that damn cat
And I suddenly was okay with that
And you were okay I was so glad
I, stupidly, couldn't even be mad
Because even though you piss me off
I don't think I could deal with the loss
Of losing you forever Glynda puppy
My pretty pissy prissy princess pibble
