Mans Best Friends

They care for me, They care for you
Yet they are still bashed
As if they are nothing but trash
They cry, they yelp
And call for help
But we don’t understand
Until it’s too late
To stop this horrible faight
All they want is a loving best friend
But all they get is a kick in the rear end
They love their owners with all their might
So hopefully they won’t have to fight
They are as lonely as a bird in the sky
When their owners leave them alone to die
help stop cruelty toward these loving friends
Before their lives come to an end
