Myself

If part of me is gone, then who am I?

What am I doing?

I have been trying so hard yet will I become unrecognizable for her?

It’s true my fur has gotten long and matted.

My ribs show at times.

I have new wounds from my journey that I haven’t been considerate to.

I’ve been damaging myself, yet I failed to see what was so wrong with it.

Not until the tender touch of another that I had desperately needed, helped guide me.
