When you were here.

It's been a month and a half since you were here,
a month and a half since we last held you in our arms,
and had to say good-bye.
We knew your time was coming,
But, we didn't think it would happen that soon.

There were no signs leading up to the day,
you seemed perfectly fine all week,
when Wednesday night came around,
you went in to mommy's room and slept there,
you never did that before.
She knew that your time was drawing near.

When morning came around,
we could tell it was probably going to be your last day.
you stayed on my bed with me all day,
then mommy tired to make you eat and drink.

you took a few bites and didn't really drink.
you got sick and layed back down.
an hour later you tired to walk..
you were stagering and couldn't walk very well.

Mommy called the vet and they told us to bring you in.
We knew your time had come ...
We all got in the car and were on our way.
When we got there they called us into the room.

The vet told us that your time had come,
she said your one kidney was shut down completly
and that she couldn't feel the other one.
She said you did very good.
You were on treatment for almost four years
But your kidneys finally gave.

It wasn't until they took you back to get you ready,
that it hit me.
I think I was in denial, I didn't want you to go.
I was trying so hard to be strong for me and mommy,
But, I just couldn't do it.

They brought you back to the room,
it was time for us to say good-bye to you.
She said you were going to be comfortable,
And that it was the best thing we could do for you,
We gave you kisses and we pet you as they gave you the injection.

She listened to your heart,
and when she looked up,
she said you were in heaven.. </3

A month and a half has past.
I still remember your smell and everything about you.
I remember when you would lay with me and never wanted to leave.
I sometimes think I see you laying with me,
or that you're laying in the sun waiting for us to get home.
Sometimes, I swear, I see you sitting there..

That's when I rememer,
you're with God, in a better place.
All your pain is gone, and you're all better.
You're reunited with your friends, and when our time come,
you'll be waiting for us at heavens gate.
One day,
We'll be together once again <3 .
