I know its time for me to go,
it’s tearing you apart
so,Mommy, let me send these thoughts
directly to your heart.
I followed you
for 16 years with love and loyalty
because I always knew
you’d do the very best for me.
I thank you for the efforts
that you made to ease my pain
but the years have since caught up with me
and now it’s all in vain.
So now I look into your eyes,
beyond into your soul
I ask you to make this choice for me
and once more make me whole.
You’re giving me a special gift,
please look at it as such
As much
as I would like to stay the pain
is just too much.
Please understand just what this gift
you’re giving means to me
it gives me back
the strength I’ve lost and all my dignity.
So cut the ties that hold me here,
I just can’t wait to run
for all the suffering to end,
to once again be young.
So one last time I’ll lay with you and
through your hands I’ll feel
the strength that you have found
within to grant me this appeal.
I’m not afraid so do not weep,
I know what waits for me
a beautful place of cloudless skies and
endless fields of green.
I’ll be there watching over you,
your ever faithful friend
and visit in your dreams
at night a young dog once again.
I can never repay
you for all you gave to me.
My life was forever changed having known you,
loved you, lost you.
No other has, or ever will,
hold a candle to you, for you are my canine soulmate.
I’ll see you in my dreams, sweet Sasha.
You are painfully missed my most sweet girl.
