My Little Miracle Options

[jenn]

Every breath was a miracle
Every bark such a joy
Every mess you made with a treat
Every loud squeak of every toy

Every single kiss good morning
And the good night kisses too
My baby, they were all such pleasures
And to my heart they quickly flew

Every punishment I gave
Every angry word I said
Was swiftly replaced with so much love
As you’d come to lay your head

Every tear I cried in solitude
They were always heard by you
And you’d rush to my side to comfort
And comfort is exactly what you’d do

With you I was never alone
You’d always get past that line
Pushing past the black the world had left
You brought me light, sweet baby of mine

Without you I am so broken
Each day harder than the last
Would do anything to hold you
Like the sweet days in the past

To feel your soft fur in my fingers
To see the love in your eyes
To know you felt comforted and safe
To hear your soft and soothing sighs

Oh, how I long for you tonight
And every night I live
To have you at my feet right now
There’s nothing I wouldn’t give

How to go on without you
I haven’t quite figured out
I do know I will miss you forever
Of this I have no doubt

I pray that you are happy
No more fear, no more pain
Have fun while you wait for me
One day we’ll be together again

I continue on each day, broken
But thankful that you were here
For life without knowing you
Wouldn’t have been worth it, my sweet dear

For every breath was a miracle
Every step of furry paws
Every kiss so quickly broke
All of my hearts so stringent laws

For teaching me how to love
And loving me in return
You were my little miracle
And for you I will forever yearn.
