Lilly
I miss your yellow red hair
The smiles you made me feel
I miss the days we would play
And the ways you would make me feel
I miss hearing your nails on the stairs
And even your panting smile
I miss everything about you that sometimes I can’t even smile
I wish i could hear your bark just one more time
I’d do anything to see your pearly whites
I wish you could help me grow
When most of the time im not right
I miss your comfort and your playful eyes
I miss it so much sometimes I just cry
When I lost you the world started fading and my head went in a million places
I think about how much we had
And all the memories that I kept
I miss your playful walk and the evenings where we would talk
Your fur was always so soft and when I held you I felt loved
It’s been close to a year but my eyes won't stop to tear
Sometimes i picture what it would be like if you were here
And all the smiles i would feel
I realize your in a much better place but i can't help but want to have you back
You made me happy when i was sad I’ve had you all my life which im glad
You loved your food and your sister you valued family which is why I miss her
I wrote this for you so you know i will continue to miss you as I grow
You give me sadness now but i know there was plenty of joy when i had you back then
My family and friends say they understand but its hard to believe when i never see them cry back
Im sure they miss you as much as I do but its hard to imagine a life without you
You were here longer than me so you have one of the biggest influences on me
You made me the person I am today and when I think about you i can get a smile on my face
You were my best friend and now your gone but i'm so lucky that i had you for so long
You were so pretty and you made me laugh but sometimes i wish it could have last
I try not to get emotional but it can be hard when someone leaves the earth and can get lost
I hold your memory in my mind and try to always hold onto you tight
People have been with me and held me tight I thought my emotion would wear off over time
You made such an impact on my life
Maybe i wasn’t your favorite ill never know but you always would showed me the right way to go
I love you so much i think i might burst and you showed me love that i always absorbed
I hope to see you one day when I grow old and ill thank you and hold you so close
This whole earth would be lucky enough to know you but i'm the luckiest because i got to hold you
I hope you feel better in heaven even though your away from me i know you visit me occasionally I will always feel your love and smell your scent whenever i start to plead you were a “person” i always wanted to be how you made me feel and how you saw the world
I will always love you my beautiful Lilly girl
