Oh So Lonely

I sit here.
I sit here on the floor and wonder,
Where are you?
I saw you this morn,
You rushed past me,
And i felt your leg,
As it brushed across my body,
And you ran for the door.

I am alone.
I have always been alone,
Since the day i was born,
Then placed in this home.
Torn,
Away from warmth and love.
But you!
You are my heart.
My best friend.
My saviour.
The one i adore.

But now where are you?
Your smell has been gone,
for far too long,
And as much as my tiny paws
Claw and claw,
I don't hear your footsteps anymore.
