It's been 10 months and 5 days since you passed..
We did your paw prints while you were still alive, 2 days before.
Not a day goes by that I don't miss you
You left one morning when we slept,
It broke my heart and then I wept.
How could god take our boy so soon?
I thought he lacked mortality, but he wasn't immune.
Each day goes by and I wonder sometimes,
Will the sadness I feel last a lifetime?
No sooner I asked it came as a tidal wave,
He knew it was time, and he was really brave.
A strong majestic cat he once was,
It brings tears to my eyes each morn because,
My heart longs to feel your soft fur under my hands,
Anyone who's lost their best furry friend understands.
Dear Sammy I miss you, and I always will,
I stare up at the clouds and sit silently and still.
Breathing deeply I can't help but think,
About the way your toe beans were so soft and pink.
Samantha Anne you turned my world upside down,
The moment I met you I had a breakdown.
You showed me a world that I never understood,
A world full of cats, I knew it was going to be good..
Thank you for sharing with us the days, which turned into years,
With us every day, 24/7 , through thick and thin and a lot of tears.
My greatest fear was losing you and unfortunately we did,
Each day that passed, my fears evolved and from then on I hid.
I'm sorry for not realizing how sick you really were,
Im glad you gave us 6 more days, and until the end we heard you purr.
The night before you passed, I kissed your head and told you I loved you,
And when morning came , I couldn't find you and dread filled my heart and then I knew.
You will always be our very good boy, and our favorite Papa Floof
You were always a spaz and you were sometimes aloof.
You always showed us love and unconditionally so,
That's honestly why I was so sad you had to go.
