I lay in bed all day waiting
For my owner to come home
I wait for him to squeeze
My soft body too tight

I love him but why cant
He be more gentle with me
He kisses and holds me
But its always followed with pain

The squeeze when he loves
The throw when he hates
The fists when he “plays”
The knife when he’s done

I think it starts off being teddybear then switches. So good. I think it is better you left it up to the readers to decide. I know about abusive relationships. This is good.
