Last Single Breath
It had been his last shallow single breath
Before cat was doomed and met his death
Now, it seems like wherever I will go
Love for my cat still does grow and grow.
Made me happy by giving his all
Why would terrible tragedy to him befall;
Friend such as him who was mine all mine
Who had gone to heaven leaving me behind.
Oh God way up above who to me is great
Wish there was a way that they could sedate
Poor cat who had been having bodily pain;
You and Your Son's presence he's about to gain.
Cat with much comfort him You will treat
Up in heaven where there never is any heat
You sit on a stool next to a pleasant pool
And everything there you always keep cool.
