I forgive you..

And on the subject of animal rescue...

Here is one that I wrote, a few years ago...

I forgave him when he shouted,
I forgave his foul words,
I forgave him when my only food,
was only fit for birds,
I forgave him when my coat turned dull,
from standing in the rain,

when he beat my back until it bled,
I forgave him once again.
I forgave him when he left me,
in this rotten stall to die,
I forgave all this without a thought,
without a question "why".

But now I see you standing here,
you say I have to go,
you say I'll never walk again,
you're sad that this is so.

I see the gun,
I close my eyes,
I shall no longer live...
You took away my life of pain...

It's YOU I should forgive..

Sometimes it's just not possible to save every one.
