Sammy

As the seconds turn to minutes
And the minutes turn to days
All these feelings deep inside me
Seem to turn to grey
I'm not yet ready to let go
I'm not yet ready for goodbye
This hurt is the hardest for me
This pain won't go away
You were my baby
My forever
Please don't ever leave me
It's time to accept it and move on
But knowing and doing are two different things
I don't ever think I'll let you go
I love you
So much
And my heart, it breaks in two
But I'll plaster on that smile
The way I always do

Author's Note

June 1, 2011. The story goes that my dog, my BABY died. I'd had him since I was three, even picked and named him myself. His name was Sam and this is his story.
