This bright red door

With golden attributes 

Behind it,

Thirteen years of friendship sits waiting.


With the creak of the door

We were greeted with new faces

And right then I knew 

I had a friend 

To grow up with me.


When everything seemed huge 

I had someone who felt the same


Jersey

My best friend for thirteen years

As I continue to grow 

Shes going down

But the thirteen years we've shared 

Will be the best years of my life

I now know

My best friend was on the other side of

That bright red door

This about my 13 year old dog who is my best friend. She was recently diagnosed with severe cardiac failure. We don't know how much time we have left with her but this poem is for her.
