A TRIBUTE TO MY BEST FRIENDS
I look into the future
And I don't like what I see.
I still can see myself
But you are no longer there with me.
Your laughing eyes and wiggle-butts
Your chewies on the floor.
All the things I love about you
Are not there anymore.
You both have always been beside me
In the present and the past.
I only see darkness in my future
Because your time with me won't last.
From the time that you were puppies
I always knew that you would die.
The very thought of being without you
Makes me sob and start to cry.
Everyday is priceless
And we live like they're our last.
For that day you close your eyes forever
Is approaching ever fast...
You have far surpassed what friendship means
Always standing by my side.
Never criticizing me for my mistakes
And never injuring my pride.
Now I see you slowing down
Your muzzles are showing gray.
I cannot even imagine
The day that you won't play.
It fills my heart with sorrow
And causes physical pain.
Just merely knowing
I'll never look into your eyes again.
I promise to be by your side
Until the very end.
Thank you both for teaching me
The truest meaning of a FRIEND!
