Expectations

His expectations.. Are low, beneath his grave. You'll never see him try his hardest because he already knows, he will fail. Miserably. He doesn't allow anyone into his home, or his heart, because he knows, they will let him down.. Poor, Peter. His best friends are his little white dogs, he feeds them every morning, and every night he cuddles with them and holds them tight because they will be there at the doorstep to greet him with joy when he comes home each day, but he knows... They won't be there forever, they will pass, and he will still be here, heart broken that his pets are no longer there. Because of this, Peter is smarter then to just let anyone into his life and later wreck his home. Peter is happy the way he lives, he doesn't depend on anyone for joy, just his dogs, a nice cold beer, and his pack of cigarettes..
