Together Forever

A tribute of everlasting love and peace to my precious Princess;

As I watched you take your last walk outside today my heart soared with joy. The winter broke just long enough for you to feel the earth on your little feet, the sun on your silky white fur, and the fresh cool air that you sniffed. My heart also screamed out in pain for I knew this was the last time I would be able to watch you enjoy such things in this body and soul. This ache is for me, as I know you are moving into the land of eternal sunshine. The decision I had to make was the right one. You were too special of a girl to suffer and feel any more of the pain that the cancer brought to you.

Oh Princess, you touched my heart. You walked into my life and shed light into the spaces of my soul that no human has ever been able to glimpse into. I will miss you my Princess. I will never forget you my love – those sweet purrs, the squeaky meows, the soccer ball gifts you would bring me, those big blue eyes glancing into mine as I stroked your chin, the soft paws kneading my leg as you settled into your comfy spot on me, your snoring and sneezing…

I promise, one day I will smile and laugh at these things again and shed only tears of joy. Right now I mourn for myself. My body feels heavy, my soul weeps, and I feel myself moving about – one step at a time, but I ache, I ache to hug, and to be with, you now and forever. Although I feel this pain, I would not trade all this pain in to have missed the beauty of life you showed me. I have no regrets.

I know your spirit will find me and I will sense your presence once again. My body will feel lighter, my soul will shine bright, and I will take peaceful strides knowing that there is a furry angel at my side.

Together forever and forever yours.
