Not sure whether to call this a poem or not. It is simply something I wrote during a rather difficult day. My cat of 13 years was put down on September 12, 2008. I will miss him dearly and to him this is dedicated.
*I would like to amend this to add in a dedication to my other cat, a 16-year-old feline that stayed with me and helped me through the grieving of his lost brother. On January 20, 2012, he had to be put down.
Both of you will be forever missed and eternally loved. May you find your peace and each other.
For the one who first looked me in the eyes and saw my soul.
For the one who came home with me and instantly began lightening my life.
For the one who could tear apart my house yet banish my anger with a single look.
For the one who was never very vocal but always listened.
For the one who put up with me when no one else would.
For the one who was always so curious that you would sometimes get into a fix that stopped my heart.
For the one who gave me years of the happiest memories that I will never forget.
For the one who was always there for me no matter the unkind things I may have said or done.
For the one who never judged me.
For the one who loved me unconditionally.
For the one who helped me find peace in the chaos of my own mind.
For the one I will eternally miss. Who cannot ever be replaced and will not ever be forgotten.
You were my best friend.
You were a part of my soul.
I have loved you with all my heart and though it pains me immeasurably to not see you, I know that no time or space, life or death can keep us apart.
I will see you again, of this I am certain.
You have enchanted my life with your glowing, furry, four-legged presence and I don't know how I will ever repay you.
May your soul find the peace, happiness and freedom it so deserves.
We will meet again, my friend, when our souls eternally rest.
