Rest In Peace WonderfulA Poem by devooeRest in Peace to my wonderful beloved dog, Toby. He passed away about a month ago. (April 17th) Everything I write it 100% true. Sorry for the weird rhyme scheme it's a bit free-style.Toby Just a year old, I came home to my best friend He's the same age. We have the same hair color Were so alike! I love him!!! We play dolls, barbies, he barks and protects Were 4 and 5 and I'm in kindergarten I look out my window during school Tobys outside the classroom window! Barking for me to come home He followed my to school everyday and waited outside my window right near my cubby 5 years later were both 6 now. He's off on his own adventure through the woods of our home He's been chasing deer and cars all life He's shot. He's been shot. My Toby has been shot right through the heart Shot directly through the heart with an arrow by a deer hunter Toby, my best friend walks home with a bleeding heart I see him bleeding as he struggles up the porch steps Dad opens the door and runs to help him He's layed out on the rug in front of my door. Crying. Blood is gushing I cry from the top of the steps Watching him below like his angel above. Mom calls the cops. The vet. Everyone Toby's whimpering and dads getting ready to say goodbye I cry with my sister and brother because were scared Cops come. Vets here Hes shooter isn't found. Its been 3 days they can't find him Toby is alive. He didn't die. You can't break a heart like his You can't take my best friend like that. But nice try. I love Toby. I aid him while he's still injured He's still smiling and never stopped. Were 10 now. Im worried he might leave me soon He's got medical problems and won't stop limping but I know he's strong Grey hairs are growing but he's still my best friend We always go on walks through town. He's got a new girlfriend in town! Hes girlfriend is obedient too! She uses crosswalks correctly and she's a Shepard Tobys so happy. They go for walks themselves on the beach I learn to share my best friend with his girlfriend He loves her and it makes my happy 13 years old, we are Hes girlfriend is dead and Toby isn't looking so good Im bullied at school and feeling depressed. I come home and sob with my arms around his neck Toby looks upset that I'm crying so i stop Toby is looking sick. He's blind now but still smiles I smile back even though he can't see it Ive got a feeling we will be best friends forever and ever I don't like to think of life without my best friend because after all, he's all I've ever learned to love 14 years old, both of us the same age but he's not looking great Mom talks about saying goodbye but i don't believe it Toby loved walks remember? He can't make it down the steps anymore without falling Hes scars are looking old and he's starting to get smelly! Still 14 The day has come to say goodbye This is hard to hard i think he knows its coming Were so silent. I hug him and loved him and flashbacks begin Knocks on the door. The vet is here to put him to forever sleep I run to my room i can't watch my best friend leave it hurts I here a yelp and with that, he's dead. My best friend is dead Feels like I've been shot this time He was ment to be on earth Born to live, to survive Shot down but still survived My best friend is never gone from my heart Rest in Peace Toby I think about you everyday Your buried in the yard Your never actually gone I can still talk to you when I'm down because you right at home But you can't hear me. Nothing ever held you back
