Never Knew You Was Needed

Never Knew You was Needed. Into my life so suddenly you came, never knew it was needed till I met you. Love freely given none asked in return, when the world put me down, by my side you came and gently lifted me up. Tears unbidden would fall, then your warmth chased them away and a smile on my face would them replace. As quickly you came so suddenly you left, a hole of memories has taken your place, though sadness reigns joy of knowing you in my soul remains. The hurt lingers on of each day not seeing your face, I look and linger at your empty space, then thoughts of the joy you gave come unbidden, I close my eyes and can feel you at my side. You’ll forever be with me in this life that I live, pictures and stories will always be shared, never forgotten love never dimmed for you my sweet furry child. By Patrick D
