Little Known Comfort

Staring at me through trusting eyes

Seeing so deep into my soul

Knowing more then what you let on

You see my pain so clearly

With you I have nothing to hide

For you tell not a soul

Of the tears you've seen

You speak no words

Yet stare at me with eyes

More understanding then ever known

So comforting it seems

As you rest your head on my thigh

Crying and smiling with me.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I've come to notice that I am unable to hide my pain as well as I could before because I'm being caught on to. My dogs..*yes dogs* have been able to read me like an open book and for some reason I find a large amount of  comfort just cuddling with them..
