My baby you had to go.
Im glad you got to live.
Im glad I saved you from that place.
The people who dont care have hearts so thin.
You were just a little bigger then my thumb.
But your heart took up a lot of you.
Im glad i got to know you
and you knew me through and through.
Sometimes I'd gentelly pet you,
when your nose would hit the top.
Im sorry you didnt like it.
Im gald I knew when to stop.
You'd swim around your tank like a little ball of fire.
And when it came to love
youd take me higher and higher.
Im glad i got to know you
for a nice Year and a half
But then heavens gates opened
and they gracefully took you back.
It was such a long time,
and we did so much too.
And when i read you this poem.
Remember I love you.
