SLEEP MY PUPPY
by SANDY WANTUCH
I will hold you while you sleep You are old and tired Eyes are heavy You fight to stay awake But exhaustion overwhelms you Lay your head down I stroke your head I rub your ears You are so sleepy I will hold you while you die You are old and tired You will exit quietly, peacefully I will not leave you I will stay and caress you, as you take your last breath I love you enough to end your misery Lay your head down The injection is given Your breathe one final breath Your spirit is released Go to sleep.........
