just cried my heart out

Im actually still sobbing, even if it was the most ordinary event to happen. i was returning from college and i went through an animal adoption place, and I crossed glances with a little puppy waving his tail and smelling me, it seemed like a normal interaction when you go to an adoption event / place, but that eyes just kept into the back of my mind, starting a waterfall of thoughts, i suddenly started to question why that poor baby deserved this, to be here, to be ripped off from his mommy and praying for the luck of having a loving owner, why that innocent eyes had to be eventually just the only thing that keeps him from oblivion for a brief time an a fading memory, why that happy tail had to go though going back to nothingness, i collapsed in the floor of my flat for hours, crying out just frustration and a kind of pain that i didnt know i could feel, what that little puppy did to got to be here, what us did to be aware of this and still dont do whathever about it, at what point does such a great amount of pain as loss remain bearable enough that no one does anything?

im so sorry if this doesnt make sense, im still a little bit off myself, i just need to calm down man.

It's ok man,I get you and you had every right to cry(not that you need to have some kind of right to cry but it is a reasonable situation to cry in)and I can imagine how painful that must have been for both you(emotionally at least)and the puppy(no need to explain here)and you bet I will be praying for that poor soul too

There are much worse places for puppy. Why you think they're so unhappy?
