Why is it always the dogs?
Always the dogs who have to suffer?
Seeing them makes your mind fog,
But why do you always differ?
From those high-maintenance breeds
To this one little mighty indie,
They just want one thing,
And that's your heart, if anything.
No fancy stuff, no gourmet food.
All they want is for you to be good.
Correct me if I'm wrong,
But it isn't their fault they were born on the streets, is it?
All I can think about is them at night,
As they protect the streets with all their might,
As they try not to get beaten up by a drunkard fooling around.
Is this their worth? Is this their worth?
Imagine protecting someone you don't even know from bad guys,
But the 'someone' turning into the bad guy.
Imagine just wanting to have a morsel of food,
But being shooed away just because they think you're not 'good.'
Imagine walking up to each and every person you see,
Hoping they would take you home,
Make you feel safe and at home.

Great Work Tapasyaa ,each word is a emotion of the being who cannot Talk.
Such a sweet and thoughtful poem….every line exudes compassion. God bless you for speaking for those who can’t speak for themselves
Hi Dear Tapasya
Hearty Congratulations for writing this Very profound and lovely poem that can come only from a kind and loving person.
Lovely social message in your article .in todays world people keep dogs to show their status rather than humility or love..and to entertain themselves..when they feel burden they just leave it in faraway place..
People are weird and dangerous than animals
Well written.
This actually reminded me of my daughter who has the same feeling and me saying "what can I do "
She says me let us take one home
And me answering we don’t have enough place to accommodate them too….etc
Hoping for the best.
Keep writing
