Dog day

It is just so hard to believe
she chose these strangers over me

dark dingy old and worn
must be what she saw I be

looking for something new and exciting
outside of our world

when together we could have found it
if she had given us a whirl

how was I to know
on this trash heap I would be

I know that I still have value
why is it she couldn't see

her time should have been free
her retirement was the way

something I looked forward to
so we could share more days

but she gave it all to another
the fun was not for me

how did I see this coming
how psyche must I be

didn't she know I wanted fun
to share with her that way

but she couldn't give me any
she gave it all away

and I was just to step aside
and not be in her way

but I just could not do that
now this dog it has no day.
