Raised just like his name
Perfectly tamed
He needed no leash to lead him
He was part of a strong kingdomSit and speak, quite brilliant he was
Learned from his farther who didn't have paws
The knights would do anything for this special boy
They had the sharpest swords, engraved with the name RoyThis kingdom has been through many wars
Survived them all and didn't keep score
Though one peaceful night while everyone slept
A fog rolled in and silently creptThe dog had been cursed by a silent killer
So hard to catch as he got sicker
There was hardly any time for the kingdom to react
It all happened so fastThe king and all of his men rushed to reverse what the curse did
But no matter how hard they tried it seemed as if it could not be undid
As he struggled to fight for his own life
The king made a decision after all the sleepless nightsHis son was just in so much pain
The suffering would only continue in vain
The princesses, knights, the women and men
Lined up to await this story books endHis hearts final beat
Bringing the kingdom to their knees
Engraved in their minds, a sentence
"He was our prince"♡♡♡♡
In memory of my baby boy who deserved so much more time then what he got. Today we had to put my dog down after he got really sick. I love you so much Prince!! Fly high honey. ♡
