b4 & after

By Erika •
I would call
"Scrappy, Tails",
and you would come out of nowhere wagging your tails and panting hard just to sit by me.
Now I sit and look out at the empty yard.
"No Scrappy and no Tails"
life is horrible
I would sing and you would listen
now my voice just drifts away
I prefer before better than after
