My Best Friend

Why did it happen
It was so sudden
Everything I was
Poured out into her.

Eyes so scared
Shook all over
her pale skin

Didn’t look like my friend.

Smell was so rancid
Please make it stop
I wanted to hit them 

with
the 
car

They didn’t see her
Impossible
She’s as plain as day.

Stay away from her
She’ll be ok
Bad man in the car

Must have been on purpose.

Her fur was stuck
Carried to the car
Hearts pounding 

What happens now?
Feel pasty, Sick 
I need to lie down.

Scared to cross the street…
