My Rescued Pet

Among millions passersby
We found each other.
You were scared
Covered with fleas
Thirsty, hungry and sobbing.

Never ever I imagine 
that I'll keep you close in my arms.
You were skinny
Covered with mud
Hopeless,helpless and broken.

I stretched my hands to you
Temporary i assumed 
Yet you grabbed my hands with your tiny paw real tight
I couldn't let you go.
I gave you shelter,
You gave me your faithful heart
You are now my Mr. Happy gentleman
You must not wander alone ever again 
You are adored
You are not going anywhere
I love you.
