It's shocking how you were just here not too long ago
And now you've vanished like dust
Rising from a kick of a soccer ball
Till this day, I run through the doors
Thinking I'll be able to see you...
In your everyday location--by the window
Gazing with your glory eyes at the door
Knowing it's my excited footsteps
How painful that knowing once gone
Means gone forever
That the only time I may, if possible, see you
Is when I pass
Who would of thought, you?
You out of every other would have passed
So awkwardly
The year 08 just had to take you
My mind rewinds your death over and over and over again
And I can't seem to ignore or block it
You didn't require much
Just food and water; then called it a day
Eight long damn years you made me feel whole
Just looking at you answered my questions
Of why you kept a smile on my face for years
No other cat can ever replace you
The scratches that once made me angry
Makes me proud now
For that is all I have left of you
I'll embrace each scar
Like you've always embraced me
You'll never be forgotten, ever
...never forgotten
