How do I say goodbye to you,
When every part of me feels broken too?
When every breath I take feels wrong,
And you’re no longer where you belong.
Your paws once danced upon my skin,
A soft reminder of the love within,
But now they’re still, and cold, and gone,
And I’m left with nothing but a song
That haunts my mind, that fills my head,
Of things I wish I would have said.
I’ll miss your early morning meows,
Your whiskers brushing, soft as vows.
Your paws upon my skin, so kind,
Your warmth was everything I’d find.
I’ll miss your soft black nose so dear,
Your grey ears, your golden eyes, so near.
Your voice, a sound I’d long to hear,
Of course, and that long tail, my bear.
The weight of this, it crushes me,
The thought that you’re no longer free
To run and play, to be my light,
To curl up close in the dead of night.
I’d tear apart the world, myself, the sky,
Just to hear your soft meow, your cry.
But you’re silent now, no more to speak,
And I am left alone, broken and weak.
I’m sorry I couldn’t save you, Mila,
For all the things I didn’t know,
For not making the hurt go.
I wish I could have done some more,
To stop this pain, to close the door.
What now divides us is this cruel line,
That I can’t cross, and you can’t find.
Love doesn’t die, I know that’s true,
But it breaks, it breaks me too.
It shatters like glass, like brittle stone,
Leaving me lost, so cruely alone.
Goodbye, my Mila, my heart, my friend,
Goodbye, my baby, our time has come to an end.
Until we meet in a different place,
I’ll carry your love in every space.
Love you forever, babygirl ♡
