When I felt like I was all alone
You would come to me and whine
When I felt like the world was on my shoulders
You would do your best to take some of the weight
You were there for me through thick and thin
When the sun had set on a day and i felt lost
You guided me back toward the light
Your bark told me when there was danger
Your grin told me it was safe and sound
You were there for me in the rain
Through the tears and the pain
Through the heart ache and fears
Through the sadness and madness
You were there to take it all away
But when you needed me
Where was I to take all the hurt
I was at school fighting the tears
For I knew what was going to happen
I was not there when you needed me the most of all
But you were always there for me
When I needed you the most.

- I had a dog like that once, but I never got to tell him goodbye before he passed. I guess he didn't want to see me cry when I came back from school. I love this poem.

- i loved that poem! It had a great flow and good use of words. It sounded happy at some parts, then sad... 5/5
