MY FOREVER PET

Shayl

There's something missing in my home

I feel it day and night.

I know it will take time and strength

Before things feel quite right.

 

But just for now, I need to mourn

My Heart-- it needs to mend 

Though some may say it's "just a pet"

I know I've just lost friend.

 

You brought such laughter to my

Home,

 

Now it's just gone silent,

Since you left my home and your family.

    I feel with you, I still miss my Jovan and its been 14 years but he still visits in my dream and I still sometimes wake up in panic because I had forgotten to pick up his favourite food.
    I am sorry for your loss. Remember funny moments and laugh, always do that..

    A very good friend had a cat named Maple. The cat, Maple, had a very funny way of making a huge and over dramatic production out of ignoring me, of just how much I did not matter to her. I don't really know how to describe this, but it was always very amusing. Maple has been gone now for several years and I really miss her. However, I know that wherever she is, she's ignoring me right now... completely.

    A sensitive write. I know what you mean. We can get replacement pets, but may not want to rush into it.
