This may seem trivial to some and not important

but for me this is something I have to do.

Losing someone or something you love is never easy and

this time it is extremely difficult.

Blackie I will always love and never forget you-never.

 

You brought happiness and love into my life for fourteen years.

I really do not know how I can manage to get you off my mind.

You were so special in many ways

and the memories flood my mind as I go through each day.

Your pictures reinforce my thoughts as I reminisce about our life together.

 

Blackie I loved you and you knew it.

As you grew older I did too.

You slowed down but all the visits to the vet seemed to always help.

Bless your heart you fought so hard and long

you never gave up and I just could not see you suffer any longer.

 

Our home was your home. Saying goodbye is never easy

but the last minutes that we had were so difficult I cannot explain.

As you slipped away I held you in my hands and wept.

It was then that I knew what a broken heart was.

You looked so peaceful like you were asleep.

 

Goodbye old friend!

I will love you forever and never never forget you!
