I tried to lose my self today..
but everywhere I turned I saw you
The sands of time will never cover your presense,
For I know you will always be a part of me.
As I grow older, my mind..will try to erase your name,
do not fear old friend
my heart has written it endelibly across my soul.
For as I held you as a kitten..you were a tiny life unbeknownst to me
but in your moment of death, I held you, as my friend.
I miss you motis..
I didn't want to let you go..but I knew I had to
but, as your last breath escaped your tired body..I felt it..
I felt it deep down inside the very core of my being..
I knew, I truly knew beyond the shadow of a doubt at that instant..
you had reached out to be caressed by the hand of God.
