Shoes to a Puppy


Have you ever been

At a friends house

And they have a puppy?

And when you go to leave

It gets a hold of your shoe?

You chase and chase and chase

But it’s fast

And it’s having fun

And the more you chase, the faster it runs

It’s frustrating because

The puppy thinks you’re playing

And there’s no way for you to explain

The concept of time and responsibilities and needing to leave

That’s what it feels like

Talking to you
