For my best friend,
I don’t think you’ll ever know
How much you meant to me.
[ Written in sequence ♡ ]

Personal •

I found you,
Unable to walk,
And all I could hear was,
Your screams of pain.
~ I wish I could have taken your place.

Personal •

I knew this day would come,
But not the day after my birthday.
~ I've never loved someone more than you.

Personal •

I held you close,
Unravelled the window curtains,
Preaching love into your ears,
To look out side,

So you could treasure,
the sunset,
And hear the birds,
One last time.
~ I miss you everyday.

Personal •

I was counting down the hours,
To take her to the vet,
And then I was counting down the hours,
How long she’d been dead for.
~ Am I going to be okay?

Personal •

How do you call your boss,
Without crying,
And explain you can’t come into work,
Because your best friend is no longer here?
~ I couldn't, so I texted instead.

Personal •

I didn’t even brush my teeth,
And I was digging a hole in the backyard.
The fence held me up,
Cushioning my tears.
~ I've never buried a best friend before.

Personal •

My friend asked me to go on a walk,
But the last walk I took,
Was to bury my best friend,
Six feet deep.. in the backyard.
~ I'm still not okay.

Personal •

I found one of your whiskers,
While I was vaccumming my room,
I taped it to my mirror;
It’s the only thing I have left of you.

Personal •

I managed to wash the blanket,
that you died on,
but I have yet to wash my shoes,
they still have residues of dirt,
that I buried you with.

Personal •

What do you do?
When the first thing you do every morning,
Is take care of someone,
Whose no longer there?

Personal •

i can’t even drink my coffee
and not cry;
while pouring milk
into it.
~ you always begged for some.

Personal •

I held you close,
Until your last final breath,
And I keep reliving it over and over and fucking over again.
~ I'm not okay.

Personal •

I’m looking forward to the day,
when I stop having nightmares.
~ I wish I could have saved you.

Personal •

I come home from work,
And look at the corner of my bed,
Hoping to see you,
Still there.
~ This doesn't feel real.

Personal •

My heart,
Is under and over,
In fire.

Personal •

I can hear you,
and I can see you,
In pigments,
Of my memory.

Personal •

You had the sweetest meow,
with heavenly white patches,
and carbon black fur,
but even when the sun is shining,
still, all I see is gray.

Personal •

I’m trying to accept you're gone,
and this is my new life now,
but i just wish you were still in it.
~i had some help & built you a memorial ❤

Personal •

I’ve gained six pounds,
But I don’t care about my weight anymore,
All I can think about,
Is how I lost you.

Personal •

I volunteered for the first time this year;
and instead of “Patient Transport”,
the computer has been locked on,
“Spiritual Pet Companion”.
~ is this a coincidence or am I losing my mind?

Personal •

Every morning,
You would wait for me in the window sill,
& now every morning,
I visit you at your grave.

Personal •

I’m not sure,
if I’m getting better,
or if I’m getting worse,
is this what moving on is?

Personal •

I think I would be okay,
If I knew you were okay too.

Personal •

Losing you,
was more than losing my other half,
neverless,
i lost a part of myself.

• Personal


I don’t have to refill your water bowl,
or clean your litter box six times anymore,
and can finally throw my clothes on my floor,
without you peeing on it.
~ I would do anything just to fucking hold you again.

• Personal


this pain,
it stings,
and oh,
it fucking burns.
~ where are you when I need you the most?

• Personal


I pick the fallen leaves,
out of your memorial,
& they keep reminding me,
how good things must come to an end.
~ but you weren’t good, you were great.

• Personal


I hug the edge of my bed,
grip the sheets of where you use to sleep,
and scream so loud the neighbors can hear,
begging you will somehow reappear.
~ you were my e v e r y t h i n g.

Childhood •

Happiness is watching my cat fall asleep,
Face first into my blankets.
~ It really is the little things.
