My son's dog comes over to me,
puts her paws up on my chest, and
looks deep into my eyes.
She affects love for me, and maybe it's real,
but how can a man know what's in a dog's heart,
when he doesn't even know his own.
I do know that she wants me to scratch her chest,
which pleases her a great deal.
I am offended in some mild way,
if this is all she wants from me,
and then i wonder:
is this how god feels about me
coming to him day after day
crying for a woman,
someone to love, and
someone to love me,
and why he says (sometimes)
No.
