One Man And

Colors of my heart, do you not see
My communication weakness, my virtuosity
To fetch run and carry each and every day
To behold and please you for eternity

Yet all I ask is to be understood
Accepted, loved and all in me that is good
I am not so different from you as you would appear I seem
I am one alone, part of you, a team

Take away the shackles, the tethers, running free
Remove the obstacles that separate you from me
Clear your vision through the mistiness and fog
I am me, alive, a being, not just a domestic dog

Care for me as I care for you
We will help each other through
