3 Dog Passed Away Ideas - Sympathy Poems For Death Of Dog
1. Don't Cry For Me
Don’t grieve too long, for now I’m free,
I’ve followed the path, God set for me.
I ran to him, when I heard him call,
no more time for fetch, nor catch a ball.
I could not stay, another day,
To bark, to love, to romp or play.
Games left unplayed, must stay that way,
I found such peace, it made my day.
My parting left you, with a void,
Please fill it with, remembered joy.
A friendship shared, your bark, a kiss,
Oh yes, these things, I too shall miss.
Be not burdened, with ties of sorrow,
I wish you sunshine and joys of tomorrow.
My life was full, you gave so much,
your time, your love and gentle touch.
Perhaps my time seemed, all too brief,
Don’t lengthen it now, with undue grief.
Lift up your head and share with me,
God needed me here and set me free.
2. The Moment That You Left Me My Heart Was Split In Two
The moment that you left me,
My heart was split in two
One side was filled with memories,
The other side died with you
I often lay awake at night
When the world is fast asleep
And take a walk down memory
Lane with tears upon my cheek
Remembering you is easy,
I do it every day.
But missing you is a heartache
That never go away
I hold you tightly within my heart
And there you will remain
You see life has gone on without you
But will never be the same
3. I Never Left You I Watch You Everyday
I watch you every day, I am always very near
I know deep in your heart you realize I am here
I watch you while you sleep in your bed at home
I hear you when you speak to me when you are on your own
You cannot understand the reason why I have gone
But I will never leave you, I am there to keep you strong
Talk to me I hear you, though you may not see
We share an unbroken bond that will always be
Death won't keep us apart
For our love is forever, just remember in your heart
And one day, we will be together
Live your life and live it full, don't waste a single day
Remember I am always with you every step of the way
