i don’t want anything special, fanfare or the like

just treat me like my dogs do when i come home at night

just come up and greet me like i am someone important in your life

act enthused to see me and you’re glad i made it back alive

this is a violent place we call home and anyone can be in the wrong place at the wrong time

things happen everyday that forever change peoples lives

and we should try to remember that every moment is a gift

you don’t have to wag your tail…………………………… a smile will suffice

 

i don’t expect anything special, fanfare or the like

just treat me like my dogs do when i come home at night
