How Did This Happen To Me?"

by Sara

Where's my mommy, my daddy,
The children that use to play with me?
I remember a soft bed and lots of good food,
And toys and people that loved me.

It's cold out here; and, I'm tired and hungry
How did this happen to me?
Can anyone hear me crying...does anyone care?
Won't someone please take pity on me?

I don't need much...some warmth, some food, some kindness;
But, most of all, just someone to love me.
The big dogs, the noisy cars...I'm always so scared.
How did this happen to me?
