Big brown eyes,
please don't make me say my goodbyes,
the shudder of your chest,
keeping your heart going to your best.
So you fought and you fought,
but only what little time it bought,
peace and comfort was all that we sought,
all for you, it is all we could do.
I can still imagine your little whine,
I can still feel pretending it's all still fine,
I can still hear your bark,
I still feel stark.
We all remember in fall,
when the cancer got to your legs and you no longer looked so tall,
your coat use to be so smooth,
then we couldn't even pet you just to sooth.
I remember holding you tight,
all through-out the night,
you would sigh and cry,
just looking at you I too, began die.
I remember the day when you forever went away,
one I knew you would've just loved to play,
you let out a deep breathe and your body shook, your soul could no longer stay,
all that I could do was cry and say, "I'm going to miss you every day."
