Oh, how my aching heart still pines for you- as many years without you, have now gone. A perfect friend you were, devout and true- that love I always could depend upon. As many years without you, have now gone, I feel your love is still within my heart. That love I always could depend upon- it lingers as an ache when feelings start. I feel your love is still within my heart, although I cannot hold you anymore, it lingers as an ache when feelings start- the absence of the sight of you- deplore. Although I cannot hold you anymore, a perfect friend you were, devout and true- the absence of the sight of you- deplore. Oh, how my aching heart still pines for you.

From the heart indeed. The loss of a pet and the grieving, is impossible to describe It’s the deepest deepest aching that doesn’t go away. Your words are well chosen.
