finding peace
i still remember
the last time i saw your face
before i left for school,
your eyes sparkled, waiting to be freed.
i still remember
it felt like i was suffocating,
drowning in a sea of grief,
when i saw your body laying there.
i still remember
asking myself,
why did you do this to me?
and now you are flowing in sync with the waves of the ocean.
we went through every battle together,
but this battle is inevitable.
Whenever i looked for a hand to hold,
a hand to support me in life,
i always got a paw instead
and took it for granted.
even though it felt like death by a thousand cuts,
i won't be selfish,
for as i know how much you suffered living here
and that you are safe and happy in a new home.
now, forever and always,
when i look up at the night sky,
at the stars,
i accept that this,
this feeling of sorrow, burden,
is the cost of being a human.
when it is my turn,
i know you will be there,
waiting for me,
and that i have
found peace in your death
