Fur Life

sometimes we feel so alone here on earth that we forget ourselves and loose our worth... why do we sadden so easily I wonder; when I look at other people, guilt seems to creep upon my body, I don't know why though. as if I see their fears and not shed tears, when they sit alone in a park. Alone, for who wonders why: Dangerous Overweight Gone In all, by just appearance So easy to misconceive the human eye. May it be so simple that you and I cannot be friends? A dependable, trustworthy, always known how you feel friend? Not really...cause our flesh is too the same, carved with a loose knife... ' Surely... But, isn't it an amazement, that flesh covered in fur, could seem not to detour. Every time by your side. Soft, slick licks; to happy your time. Timid life span in comparison to ours. Forever though remembered, for they stay in our hearts. Rigid at times... In an out of line. Easy to please and hard for them to obey. Never surrendering though, if fear you display. Dipping their eyes to see your face. The elderly live longer because they call them friend. They do not care if you are ugly...well you must be already to them. They give time to you always, even though you forget yours. Your childhood felt lonely, until they came on hunched curves. Being an adult was hard but they helped you smile. It's funny how an animal could save you... ....from a depressing lifestyle. Assignment: importance of pets in a person's life
