Minnos

You went away, you left me
I can't understand why
Why did you go away?
Why did you die?

My heart it is breaking
My life's upside down
In thoughtsand unhappiness
I'm beginning to drown

You were found on the railway
A train had hit you
I feel so damn helpless
What can I do

I need to face what's happening
Your gone and that is that
Im going to really miss you
My darling pet cat

Dear Marnie, Our pets give us unconditional love. That is their gift to us and that is why we grieve so much. The greater the love the greater the grief. In time, it will pass and you will be left with precious memories that will make you smile. Wonferful tribute! Love and peace, lainie
