I AM NOT ALONE













Tears so painful they refuse to spill

With heavy heart I lie
Feeling alone in my sorrow
I silently grieve


Only to find myself surrounded by wagging tails
soothing kisses that gently wash my pain
soaking my heart with their unconditional love
piercing my soul with powerful empathy

They grieve with me and I am not alone.

    Adore those faces, all of them. You can feel their quiet love and protection. It is like they are projecting a zen force field around you. Wonderful.
