I would give anything For one last kiss One more goodbye That would last for eternity I miss you every waking hour In my dreams I feel you, your soft fur In my dreams I hear you, purring I know you visit me while I sleep My angel, keeping me company In my life for 23 years Now gone for 10 The pain still as raw I still cry at photos Of you so happy, alive and with me You ran into my open arms Welcomed me home every day The memories we shared, now locked away, safe. I watched you fade and could take no more I couldn't see you suffer The doctors tried to make you better Then the dreaded news They could not win, I had to let you go The red injection took you slowly away Your life slipped away in my arms The Angels took my place Gone forever, but never forgotten As the memories remain In my heart and in my soul They took a piece of me with you When they took you from this earth I thank you for the years of comfort I thank you for being my friend I thank you for making me smile For letting me cry into your fur And for licking my tears away with you rough tongue The entertainer of the family Mummys boy and confidante Always at my side I now pray to Saint Francis to keep you safe in heaven Until we meet again You are gone but you live on with all of us in our memories So remember my baby, my faithful furry friend Mummy will always love you Together until the end Here's a great big cuddle Until we meet again........................ 22/01/16
