People tell me I have sad eyes-and they’re not wrong.
But I wish more of them would stop and really see what’s behind them.

If they did, maybe they’d understand.

Yes, I’m timid.
But I’m also something else: I’m yearning-
for snuggles in quiet corners,
for belly rubs that say “you’re safe,”
for soft forehead kisses that feel like home.

I don’t love right away.
I love slowly – but fully.
Not loudly. Not wildly.
But deeply, like I’ve been carrying my heart around just for you.

I may be a dog, but I think we’re not so different.
I have fears, hopes, memories I carry.
I want to be understood, to be chosen, to be cherished.
I may not be perfect, but I’m perfectly me.

I need you. Maybe just as much as you need me.
