My old boy Kodi bear isn’t too well, he’s nearly 11 and his full on life has
just caught up with him, I don’t know how much time we have left together
but I do know we will make the most of it, creating memories and spoiling
him rotten. I felt I needed to add a little explanation before the following
poem as not everyone who visits this site knows us and our journey
personally……………………………………………………………………………………………………
I can’t do this but I know I must
I have your love, I’ve earned your trust
The time is near to say goodbye
So to draw my inner strength I try
My heart is broken, my soul destroyed
I can’t see a future living with this void
You’re my better half, my life, my joy
You’re my special lad and my very best boy
But it’s because of this I know I must
Find a way to cope and make little fuss
The girls all need me to be strong
To show them all how life must go on
I’ll help keep your memory burning bright
I’ll let no one forget your love, your light
My saviour I thank you with all my heart
My dearest Kodibear, nearly time to part
But know this my lad I’m ever grateful
For your presence these years, strong and stable
You opened my heart, let me love a new
Cheeky chappy you are, but my angel it’s true
So when time’s upon us for you to go
As I fracture and break this much I know
I will hold you tight, I will kiss your face
and whisper I love you, let you go with grace
No more struggling my love, I promise you this
On the other side it’s pain free, just bliss
You will only know love right until the end
My life, my boy, my saviour, my friend….
