as kids
we played
a towel around our necks
we saved the day

Super dude and mighty mutt
that was us
a boy and his dog
when times where simple
we fought pirates for gold
had our forutnes told
a lot of happy memories
of afternoons spent with you


then as I got older
you were there to listen
when no one wanted me around
a friend I could trust
to keep my secrets
not because you couldn't talk
but because loyalty
was your best quality

you were there when I was down
you had a habit of upturning my frowns
so many times you made me laugh
and a few when ya made me cry

it's not fair you had to go
to Leave in so much pain
and I shouldn't have left your side
I didn't get to say goodbye

you gave hope to a needy child
you kept me safe at night
and warm too
so now I say rest at peace
farewell

Inspired by the conversation we had, I assume. My heart is with you, sweeting. You know they never really leave us, loyalty is always their best quality, even when they've "gone". Blessed be, love. This is an amazing tribute to your beautiful best friend.
