Goodbye

Goodbye my little reptiles,
Goodbye my little friends,
Goodbye my turtles.

I'll miss you Nemo,
You were MY baby,
I'll miss you Nana,
You were such a good pet.

Late at night,
When the world's fallen silent,
I'll think of you guys,
In your new home in the pond.
I'll pretend I can hear you splash around.

Even if you never wanted to leave,
It's for your future,
As well as mine.

I told you,
You'd be going on a nice trip,
nothing was wrong.
I'm not going to pretend I didn't lie.

Remember how proud I was when you first ate your food?
When you bit into it like a shark?
Remember my giggling when you splashed for food?
I'll miss you and you'll never be forgotten.

Bye bye my little turtles.
