I want to be a dog,
Not a child,
Not an older sister,
I want to be a dog,
not a primary seven,
not a girl who dreams but never achieves.
I want to be a dog,
I don’t want to be lost,
I don’t want to be abandoned,
I want to be a dog,
I don’t want to be the one with all the responsibilities,
I don’t want to be the one caring for my siblings
I want to be a dog,
to run free,
to have fun,
I want to be a dog,
to be useful,
to be loved and appreciated.
I want to be a dog,
I am going to be in a world with amazing owners,
I am going to a wonderful world full of kind people,
I am going to be free not trapped,
I am going to a world with great friends who support you with everything.
