Goodbye my friend,
I said at last.
I knew this time would come.

You were my best friend,
My confidante,
My furry little companion.
The one that always led the adventures
And rarely followed.

Your fur was unruly,
Your ears were always perked,
And your attitude was always the best.
Coming and finding me when I was down,
Poking me with your nose.

I love you my little friend.
You were the highlight of my life
For so many years.
You will never be forgotten.
Je t'aime, my little shadow.
