Stray dog

I ponder
As I wander
Over yonder

Leash out of hand
Voice out of reach

My brown eyes glistening towards the sunset
My powdered lips hanging open, gasping for air
Both my paws, ears, and tail feeling the breeze

I ponder
As I wander
Back to yonder

How all these years
Of me being your friend
Of me being your therapist
Of me being your child
Of me being your will to live
Of me being your love
Was so easy for you to let go.

I ponder
As I wander
Over yonder

Of how easy it was for you to move on
Like I was nothing
