Pain I am

Those several days now.

I had to hear her crying.

The pain I am in.

I was scared to hear her yelping.

The pain I am hearing.

How much she has squrmed.

The pain I am seeing.

Now she is gone, 

And I am crying.

The pain I am in.

Finding her dead and calling my father,

I am scared.

I continue to cry.

I will cry until August 14th.

Because, my dog has died,

Because it will be one day of crying to represent, one year of her life.
