Thank you for fighting to save me,
thank you for letting me go.
I tried so hard to stay and when
at last I had to leave your arms
I didnt know you'd cry so much,
for such a little friend.
.
I saw you put our toys away.
Don't you want to play
with the ball or the squeaky bone?
Maybe it wouldn't be as fun
to play with them alone.
.
That place you made in the yard
is nice, with flowers and a teddy bear,
I'll try to get my teeth on that
and drag it laughing through the air.
.
I watched you find a photo of me
and put it on the fridge.
I will remember your face as well,
and I'll meet you at the bridge.
