Paw Prints On My Heart
fresh tears in my eyes
I knew you would break my heart
From the first day our eyes met
Faithful companions, loyal friends
My protectors, my confidants
True and unconditional love until parting
A girl’s best friend is not diamonds
But her doggos and kitties
Sweet and precious fur babies
From above, sent to watch over
To love them, a blessing … and curse
A thing so pure cannot last here
Not on this broken and sinful world
Goodbye is not the hard part of losing them
That comes later, when we feel you
False moments by our feet, ghost-fur
Until we meet again, keep the next place warm
Thank you for choosing me to love
I miss you, all of you
Your Paw prints are on my heart
Forever
