As I always do I spend some time, with the body the spirit has left behind,
So much to say between thankyou's & sorry's, I play our song, and relate our stories.
I examine your body and each part I kiss, cause once it is gone - it will be missed.
I look into your sweet little face and remember those trusting eyes
That were yours - and they spoke your very own truth - I hope I realized
What you'd been thru and needed, and I hope I made good
I hope that I gave you all that I could.
The ritual that I do for you - I've done so often for others too
It's crying & grieving to convince my brain that the spirit is gone tho the body remains
When my mind is convinced that your soul's been released
I can bury your body with a mind that's at peace.
And then my darling, we are truly together, not just for a moment but for ever & ever
You're still in my spirit, you're still part of me, we have a connection the brain just can't see.
And the spirit within you it sure didn't die, it just went to heaven, it lives & it flies
And the bridge ain't a wall, it's a 2 way street, we can visit each other, just can't do it on feet.
A photograph, a memory, or something just so deep in me
Will fly across my 'Am Aware' and once again you'll be right there.
I know each time I see you, my heart and mind will smile
The same effect that you had here you'll have across the miles.
And all the feelings I felt for you, will swell within me like when they were new
Love lasts a lifetime when you're good for each other
And heaven ain't heaven if you don't find each other.
But Savanna, I don't think you know what you've been
My curse & my queen and my closest friend
I watched you most closely, I needed to know
Any sign, any gesture you were ready to go...
Last night you were fine and this morning still yet
Had a 3:45 appointment today with the vet
But not being sick just a problem with skin
That you'd had before, but I wanted you in.
Then today on my desk in front of my eyes, you got listless & wobbled
So I agonized, I called to the vet to get in right away and 11:45 was best they could say.
So I packed you up right away, we'll go to the office early and beg for help, what can they say?
Put you in the car and I checked on you then, you were gasping like a fish, so I took you out of the cage and held you, I tried to breath into your mouth, but you died in my arms. Oh baby..
You didn't warn me you were leaving me yet
I carried you home and did the ritual thing
Holding & kissing & trying to sing
This time the comfort kept reverting to shock
When I looked in my arms -
and it was mySavanna :cry:
I'll put pictures later, I'm really too messed to deal with photobucket & choices.
