O’ husky angel with new wings,
I long for you.
You ascended in a flash.
Leaving chasms behind.
Our eyes are burning coals.
Our tears are scorch marks.
Our veins are tearing,
Stretching,
Reaching,
for heaven.
My heart is in turmoil,
I know not what we were.
More than brother
More than friend
An (almost) lover
An (almost) partner
This deepest and searing loss
With pain sharp and unyielding.
O’ husky angel with new wings,
We had more than most,
A love like no other
But as real as another.
I would never seek to steal your peace,
But find resentment against those wings.
