Good Old Dog
When he was young
They were younger than him
To him they looked the same
One just had an extra bone,
The other took it away
They realised he was wise,
Someone to idolise
Walking beside the sea
he would rant, randomly
Let's play a game today
just do what i don't say
They took a bite, there came the night
Day went far away
Soon there were more
Brown, pink and red
But to the father, they were dead
They might be family, but who knows
If father's gone
What wisdom is there to be had
When he is not in our midst
Life seems rather sad
It's been so long
War's far from gone
Family has grown apart
he hasn't tried to heal his heart
he just went to bed.
