In The Eyes of A Dreamer

This is a poem for my senior project for school.

I am used for breeding.

The fight is non-existent.

Strapped down to this horrendous stand,

where not only is it impossible to fight back,

but these ugly, aggressive men rape me.

 

I am forced to have these babies that will never truly be mine.

The life I never wanted for myself or my pups.

Always being beaten and starved.

Chains around my neck are choking me when I move.

 

I dream of a family and home to call my own.

An owner that will treat me like one of them.

Maybe have a companion and some little ones running around.

I dream of something bigger each time I close my eyes.

 

In reality, I'm forced to have families over and over again,

Each time they are ripped away from me.

There is no hope worth fighting for.

But I dream and hope and dream and hope

that someone will come rescue me.

 

My prince and my savior,

I wait for them each painful moment.

I long to see one human that cares,
one person to see my pain.

 

I hope it's not too late to be saved.

My dreams and my hope mix together.

My reality of a life kills me each waking moment.

I wish to not remember this pain or life.

 

My hope is shrinking though,

as I see more and more people pass by,

not having a care in the world what happens to me.

Dreams can never truly be accomplished without help.

 

Save me, that's all I ask.

Help me, save me, become the better person.

Alas my time is coming to an end.

If I cannot be saved, at least help this reality end in the world.
