They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

That was beautiful..... :cry:

 

That was wonderfull. Perfect for the way I feel about my beloved Cheyenne.

 

Okay...I'm crying :cry: Right here in front of my computer.... 3 weeks ago when I was in the vet's office having my wonderful cat I had had for 18 years put to sleep, I remember thinking to myself that the pain I was feeling right then and there was too horrible.... that I loved my animals too much and I never wanted to go through it again. Then the thought came into my head of Rusty, my new dog. I thought, "OMG! I'm going to have to experience this very moment with him some day!! I can't do it!!"

Then later on in the day, I was mulling everything over.... and thought about that again.... And came to the conclusion that as painful as saying goodbye is, all the good years, memories, companionship and loyalty one animal can give you does make it worth it. And although they can only be with us for less years than we'd like, what they give us is very precious, and I believe makes us all better human beings.

 

Pam I love your quote under your name. That sums everything up in one nice quote. Just had to share that.

 

That was so nice, thanks for sharing.
