Seven Months
We didn’t have much time, not much left at all.
I didn’t know any better, you were just waiting for the call.
I looked at you with my big blue eyes, and you looked at me wondering why.
I didn’t know what was to come, but you knew you would have to say a dreadful goodbye.
You remembered every glistening moment, not one single second left un-cherished.
You made sure I was safe and warm, and always fed and nourished.
I squeezed your finger, to show that I will always love you.
It was breaking your heart; soon I’d have someone else to look up to.
You soon passed on, and I would be reminded of what you were about.
And I am sad that I never got to say, just how much I loved you without a single doubt.
