My Cat Died

I would like to say that I cried,
But it rymes to well with died,
And it really does not express
How I really feel.
Isn't that the reason I am here?
Writing this in the first place?

I know he is fine
And so am I.
To truly live,
Everything must die.
It is Okay.
He came and he went,
And he shared and he helped
Me get through a tough time.
(I will have to finish later
not because I am sad, but
because the phone won't stop ringing)

  1. It's okay to be sad; cats are so lovely. I'm sorry for your loss.

  2. There is an empty spot scooped out of your heart I know. Only time will slowly heal it. But you have unconditional love from your furry companion. And love never dies. Not really. It lives on in your heart and in your memory. And in my worldview, your cat is waiting for you in that land than knows no shadow or pain of parting, Roland

  4. Thank you Matt. It has been harder to let go than I thought.

    Thank you Roland. Your words are very comforting. I want to believe that he will be waiting for me. He was just too special not to exist anymore and I think we did have a connection.

    and thank you so much Sienna, I am feeling better. I went to the animal shelter and rescued 2 kittens. It is helping.

    Thanks again everyone especially for understanding that he was not just a cat.

    Love ya
