Puppy Love
Puppy's pleading and glum glimmering eyes,
Little white teeth trying to stop the one who's leaving,
But who's going to tell the one who's leaving that without him the world is less,
Less colours,
Less laughter,
Less smiles,
Less shine,
Only a dull and grey world.
The puppy held on to the man’s leg with all his strength,
The man kept his distance and the pup at length.
The pup cried, the agony of its voice
Cannot change the man's choice
Of leaving
And deceiving
The poor pup
And
The poor puppy love.
