The Life of an Indoor Dog

Waking up to the same old thing every day for my life of an indoor dog

Never being able to eat the food that is so precious to me

Staying inside with no way out to the outdoors

Trapped in a house with only humans and indoors

Wishing to see my friends outside

Never knowing if there is more out in the world

Dreaming of running outside with my paws grasping the world

But always waking up to a nightmare stuck inside

Wanting my owners to let me outside

Beginning to become depressed at the world that I never get to feel

Not knowing if it’s worth for me to be in this world

Looking outside with the rain I've never been praying to feel

Wanting to know what the substance of water and ice would feel

Listing to the joy and the love some owners have with their dogs

Waking up to the same food in my bowl that says indoor dog

I don't even have a name my owner just calls me dog

Why does my owner not love me

I never wanted to make him hate me

Wishing I could be reborn to a different thing other than me

Looking up to the sky and asking why me

I would rather die loving my life outside

But I have to die hating my life as an indoor dog

Thinking that I am the only one in this world

Never being able to have kids that look just like me

Telling myself that this isn't me

There is more out in the world

Motivating myself to find a way out of the indoors

Ready to explore and live my life in the outdoors

Getting my paws ready to go outside and look smell and feel

But sadly my owner may never come back to check on me

Dreaming of the day that I will see and feel the outdoors

Always dreaming for the day dogs will run up to me

Wanna play with them like every dog should but I am still stuck in the indoors
