Growing Up

I do believe that, children grow up when they realize how cruel the world truly is.

Need

I'm sure you have felt to some degree this pain of need.
It's not simply that
I want be by your side
It is that I cannot properly function
Without you there.
My heart is torn, shattered like glass.
I almost want to hate you
For doing this to me.
You've made me so weak.
I go to bed crying every night.
It's no longer the night-terrors that cause my distress,
But the thought of being without you.

I need you
I have fallen apart in your absence, Master
I wear this collar
Even though you hate to see me do so
Because it is all I have
To remember those needed hugs, those kisses, those cute little comments but no longer do I.

I'm falling apart ... please, please...

I need you...

I shall do anything, my Master, but please stop glancing at me from across the way.

As if I was never anything to you or you to me.

I love you and I believe that if this shall continue I shall disappear.

I beg you my Master please return.

A Lasting Hope

It seems sitting here won't do me any good.
I've taken care of everything here
So that if you are to return
You won't have to deal with it Master
I look down to my dog and smile
"At least you have returned to me"
He wags his tail glad to be with me as well.
I look out about the roses and I wonder where you have gone Master
I know it silly to hope for your return
Yet this day when I came here
There was something peculiar prowling outside
I do believe it was a lion something I have never seen here
It was so odd because a certain thought popped into my head then. I do recall you spoke of such beasts, and how loyal and prideful they are.
So perhaps you left me here for your own pride, yet where is your loyalty?
If that is to be true
I love you Master I always will
And even though it is childish I won't give up my hope in you.
