A Love, the first of its kind

And then there you were

With a wet nose and an apprehensive, wobbly run

Coming to me as though to rescue me

From what was to come in the next three days

Since then you've never let me be alone 

For the best part of the last eight years 

Walking up to me on my saddest days and yours

With the same mud-ridden paws

Eyes so bright nobody could tell your blindness

Inspiring us every day with your resilience 

I'll forever hold on to those t-shirts, sheets and spaces 

That held your fur, pep, and presence

And I'll forever carry with me the void of your absence

I’m sorry for clipping those nails

giving you baths

balming your paws

I’m ever so grateful for the angel that you were despite your resentment thus

I continue to weave scenarios with you

For I’m happier with you on my happiest days

Brighter with you on my gloomiest days

With more love than regrets

And more Chimken than Chia seeds
