SANAI

I could never ask for a better friend
Then the friend you were to me
Anytime I needed you
At my side you’d be

I can’t believe you’re gone now
It’s all just such a shock
From the minute Mum told me
My tears won’t cease to stop

Why did this have to happen?
Just when everything was good
You had your little puppies
I had my blessed childhood

From the second you were born Sanai
I chose you as my own
I thought you and me forever
From a pup I’ve seen you grown

You slept with me every night
In the shows you made me proud
I used to sneak you extra food
And let you in when no others were allowed

You were only four years old
So many years ahead
But that morning that car came all too fast
And the next thing I knew you were dead

I’m thankful for the time we had
All those cute things you used to do
I hope you enjoyed your life here with me
And know I loved you too

I know we have the memories
Many happy of course
And in my mind you’ll always be
You and your happy face

Out of all of us that miss you
Mum, Dad, Taylor and all the rest
I know you know this already
But to me you were the best

Even though you’re gone now
In my heart you’ll always live on
Sanai you were my best friend
Nothing will ever break our eternal bond

You've touched my heart with this poem LuvnKris! From one critter lovin' heart to another ... the loss you feel is deeply understood from this reader. I've written many a poem about the loss of my 11 year old Shepherd ... and still miss her so. Wonderful writing, thank you for this sentimental 4-legged read. Nicely penned from the heart!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

I loved this poem. Take note: i hardly say i love a poem. I usually say its good or its cute.
Ok but anyway i loved it. I relate to a T. I had a cat that was with me since i was 1 and died last year. Meaning out of my 16yrs of living he was with me for 15 of them. My life crumbled. He was my refuge. Yes but anyway, just to inform you im 17 if your bad at math. Yes but back to the poem. Very nice. I REALLY want to see another one of your poems, so post up!


I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
