We do not live in a vacuum, which is good because I would be afraid all the time<\/p>\n
I hate the vacuum, as you know, but I am also brave<\/p>\n
at least when it comes to you, my family<\/p>\n
Furever Family is what we’ve found<\/p>\n
You and I together, on our playground<\/p>\n
I saved you from being lonely<\/p>\n
also from being afraid<\/p>\n
I know you have some ghosts that haunt you in your sleep,<\/p>\n
but I’ve learned not to hide from you when you call out in the night<\/p>\n
instead I snuggle in closer and put my wet nose in your palm<\/p>\n
Then you know it’s me and you don’t have to be a fright,<\/p>\n
You saved me from the shelter and the human merry go round I was on<\/p>\n
You saw a was a big boy, but your love was just as big<\/p>\n
with your help my love grew too<\/p>\n
and also, I am brave, from any spider<\/p>\n
there ever was, you my friend, I will save!<\/p>\n
