By our Side

By our side, there she is, our friend for a while.

Brown locks, her white spot,

a gentle copper smile.

Full of mischief. Paranoid.

Lazy, yet wise.

She’s always around, the perfect partner, the perfect size.

Her warmth fills our hearts, on the days we feel hollow.

Always around… until there is no tomorrow.

The day she moves on—a day we wish would come never.

An inevitable truth, we will conquer together.

Little feet, floppy ears, curly hair that’s all wild.

By our side, she’ll always be, our friend for a while.
