Four back to back
Of the very best
Last of the closest
Mom called home
An entire ode to her
Our last moments
Her final hours
Now Dad, feels so alone
I try to be here
To be strong
To carry his load
All his friends since passed
Momma waiting
He hopes not long
Best friend become family
Stronger then any should be
Body riddled with every form
Liver, kidneys, bad heart,
bad breath years of fighting
In his eyes I see he is ready.
No to chemo, no to any
My best puppy no more
Nilla bean, now in dog years
Turned 84!, bumps forming
And tired oh so tired.
Writing on the wall.
The best luttle princess puppy
Loving and caring as demanding
Won't be long.
And me left alone
In this house of love
Alone. Struggling to accept.
Missing what was.
4 back to back
And i am unable to help them.
Wondering how or what
If i even want
To go on with out them.
