An Elegy For My Dog Poem by Shenna dela Torre

Oh my love! Why did you leave me?
You are my happiness.
I took good care to you
And you do the same way too
In times that I'm feeling low, you are there to make me happy and bring back to life.
You are there to guide me when I don't know what to do.
You are there to listen in my nonsense murmur.

Oh my love! why did you leave me? I thought
I would have you forever.
I thought there's no endless between us.
But all my thoughts are turn to nothing.
Like a bubble that quickly dissapeared.

Oh my love! why did you leave me?
Where are you when the time I needed you most?
When I'm going down?
When I want to cry?
I want to tell you secrets?
If we could only have this life for one more day.
If I can turn back time, I will spend lots of time with you.

Oh my love! My loveliest, my beloved dog.
Why did you leave me?
I can't find any true friend like you.
A friend that is ready to listen in my problems.
I love you so much my dog!
I'm sure you are in God at this time.
I won't forget about you.
