Goodbye Darling


You spent your last night next to me I nursed you trying to stop the pain

but your crying told me how much it hurt.....

Tati and I gave you meds we sang you lullabies

but only my petting stopped you from crying,

you lay on your little blue bed, you were so sick....

My little Darling, after seventeen years your time has come to say bye bye

I gave you a bath, the warm water seem to help a bit,

but I could see that you couldn't move anymore...

I cried as I dried you, so thin and frail...

my little darling finally in the morning you slept but by nine

you were crying again and I knew....

We drove you to the vet and she gave you a shot

you went quiet, as we caressed you Dima, Tati and I around you

all of us crying, and you so tiny so small..

with your little black eyes going dim and

at eleven you gave two little breaths and you were gone....
