Smoke to the Heavens In loving memory of my best friend~ R.I.P 11/7/23

Megan Jones

Goodbye my sweet boy! My heart was broken again, This time to never be replenished.

A decade plus seven, though it couldn’t be stopped. A ball of flesh once, there will never see the day again. A foe to many, but a best friend - to me - a son. My baby, and in arms, emotional support, Whom I reach my hand to day after night, Whom I was able to speak to without anger. It was your duty to always stay, To stay besides me on autumn days. If it should be that I grow weak, Even from the pain that keeps me from my sleep. Your last battle couldn’t be won, So we had to do what had to be done. My life is complete with grief as the silence of loss seeks to heal. I will be sad, I understand. It will take time as I often speak your name, but time to let go - I will not let smoky grief take my hand, For you will still keep the peace while your soul is fast asleep. They say memories are golden - Well maybe that is true. Memories are keepers, Although I won’t have any more of you. Your pawprints left for me at the door no longer greet me. Life seems quiet without you - my missing piece. The silence will eventually go away,
