My Forever Pet

There’s something missing in my home,
I feel it day and night.

I know it will take time and strength
before things feel quite right.

But just for now, I need to mourn,
My heart — it needs to mend.

Though some may say, “It’s just a pet”,
I know I’ve lost a friend.

You brought such laughter to my home,
and richness to my days.

A constant friend through joy or loss
with gentle, loving ways.

Companion, friend and confidante,
A friend I won’t forget.

You’ll live forever in my heart,
My sweet, forever pet.

You will always have a piece of my heart.
