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
