i love my dog
and my dog loves me.

this is the simple kind of love,
not complicated like that which we had,
you and me;
this one just IS
and it doesn't need a reason
or a future
or a past

because my dog loved me
from the moment he met me
and i loved him just the same
and neither of us has ever questioned that fact
and neither of us ever will.
