Who's a good boy

"Who's my good boy"
I said to my dog
As he comes
Running to me all
happy and small
Oh that smile that makes my happy
For I thought that we would
Spend time together
We would grow
Old together
As the year went bye
You grew old
Faster then me
And became sadder
And slower
Just wanting to sleep
Them one day
You went to sleep
And didn't wake up
For I wept
And wept
And wept
My best friend was gone
Day
Weeks
Months
Past and I couldn't stand it
Coming home to a sad house
All alone
I couldn't stand it
So when I left
I was happy
For when I opened my eyes
The only thing I could say with tears in my eyes
As I saw him running to me was
"Who's my good boy"
