My Beautful Friend

by Connie
(Canberra, ACT, Australia)

Angus, I'm so lost without you. You have been a part of my life for 14 years and it hurts so much that you are no longer with me.

The home is so empty without you. No more clickety clicks through the house, no more rattlesnake tail wagging, no more greetings, no more licking your lips, no more sighing. The silence is deafening.

We've been through it all, good and bad. We've had a long journey together, but now I must continue on without you.

I love you so much, and will forever. I hope we will meet again somewhere, somehow. You are my BEST FRIEND forever.
