I can still smell her hair
I can still remember her lying beside me
She was so good at keeping me warm
I can still see those eyes piercing into me
I had to let her go
It was the hardest choice I had to make
She was my confidante, my baby girl
And I watched her slip away
She will no longer follow me wherever I go
She will no longer place her paw on my face
She will no longer cry for affection
She will no longer complete this lonely space
She was so special, so full of life
She was the sweetest, most beautiful bundle of fur
I am so sorry I had to let you go
If I could I would pay a million dollars for your cure
She left me completely alone on Valentines Day
I returned home with an empty cage and cried
She went so fast, no more suffering.
But my suffering is ripping me apart inside
For all the tears, the headaches,
The swollen, red eyes I would do it all again in a heartbeat
To love her was to love something so simple, so pure
I will miss her running to door to greet me
This house seems so empty without her
I keep thinking she’s around the corner
I cry just looking at her favourite places
I know I have to give time to mourn her
Soon she will be a happy memory
A beautiful gift that God graced me with for so long
Soon the pictures won’t make me cry
She had to go, but she will never really be gone
