That Day

THAT DAY

That day started as any other day,
Then I saw your face swollen and warm,
I think I knew then.

I made the call and drove you there,
I handed you over, not wanting to let go,
I think I knew,
That you wouldnt be coming home.

During the long day I knew,
I sobbed I was so worried,
The call came,
After listening i definitely knew,
I broke down sobbing my heart in bits.

I drove the distance to be with you, 
I held you, cuddled you, loved you
The big C had you compleatly,
I told you how much I loved you and gave the nod.

As you passed I asked you to wait for me,
To come for me when it was my time.
My darling Rocky Bear,
You where this woman's BEST friend.

I miss you rocky ***
