I've been here for 2 years so far,
And I have the greatest owner.
He’s kind, and he loves me.
He gives me attention every day.
When he comes home,
I would lick him to no end.
I've never been more alive,
he treats me like his son.
When he lets me outside,
we would play all day.
I love my owner,
And he loves me.

It’s been 8 years thus far.
How am I still alive?
He kicks, and he screams at me.
He hurts me almost every day.
When he comes home,
I hide my tears from him.
I’m on the verge of dying,
when was my last meal?
When he throws me outside,
I’m cold and alone.
I still love my owner,
And he loves me,
Right?
