THE DREADED DATE






THE DREADED DATE




I hate this month and I hate this date
For eight years ago I lost my mate,
I miss him so much that it still hurts
On this day all the healing reverts.


    


I`ll never forget him that`s for sure
And for my hurting heart there`s no cure,
I can`t get past the loss that I feel
My heart has a hole that just won`t heal.





Sweep like a shadow was always there
Yes he and I made the perfect pair,
Joined at the hip my shadow and I
Now he`s gone it`s no wonder I cry.


    


I hope he`s happy in doggy land
Knowing Sweep he will be on remand,
He made me laugh with his naughty ways
But I must admit he did love praise.





I talk to him hoping he can hear
I tell him how I wish he were here,
I wish Sweep had never had to go
It`s so lonely here without my shadow.
