My Dog

So sad was my dog
Yesterday and last night 
In fear of his demise 
I prayed within the light
I gave him medicine 
And worried awake 
Until dawn
But wouldn’t you know
His strength regained
Amidst my weakest yawn 
Saw him chasing rabbits 
His strength returned so fast 
I think he played head games
Pity was his power 
I fell deep line and sinker
Believing he was done
But the stinker betrayed 
My trust and I was gone
