I Wish, I Guess, and That's The End

This poem is dedicated to the dearly departed Sweetie.
1999-2007

I wish that she didn't have go that way,
I wish that I could've prevented it,
I wish that she was still alive,
I wish that it wasn't my fault.
I know that there was nothing I could've done,
But still, I could've helped.
I know that animals come and animals go,
But this one is different.
I guess this would be easier for me,
If she just went to sleep and never woke up.
But instead it was long and painful death,
Up until her last three or four minutes.
I wish that the greiving process wasn't so hard,
I wish that I didn't really care,
I wish that I could die right now,
And be with her,
Just one last,
Time.
