You went to heaven the other day

But didn't come back

Held you even after death

How do I move on?

When I had you for eighteen years

I've never lived a day without you

Until now

You were a year older than me

Starting to slow down

It didn't hit me you were gone

Until I felt how cold you were

How you stayed so still

I don't know if I'll ever heal

Cause' you were my baby girl

You never made a sound, not even a meow

Breathing went shallow with every breath

Died in my sister's arms

Who cried over you

Even though she swore she hated you

Was told the news after work

Already knew what it was once they mentioned you

The tears wouldn't stop

Somehow I had to cork them up

How could the love ever stop?

How could I write just how much you meant to me?

I'll see you again

No matter what it takes
