Rabbit, My Rabbit

You were so small,

But your love was so big.

Quiet, soft, the best rabbit

You could ever be.

🐇

When you left, it was too soon.

I still look for you, talk to you,

I check your empty bed, your feeding tunnel,

Are you still there? Sometimes I feel you are.

🐇

Your ashes sit near me now,

Always, as you were once, always with me.

One day, when it’s my turn to rest,

I want to be with you again.

🐇

Let them place me with you, my last will,

My ashes mixed with your ashes,

So we can be together, forever,

Where love doesn’t end.

🐇
