Creating space to pause, reflect and share experiences with dying and death

I hope you were happy

I hope you were happy

a little green package handed to me at the vet and my living nightmare
little feet curled up inside a blanket and fur still warm
1 second you were in my arms and ten minutes later you were back in my arms in a different way
you looked so old in death, so fragile, so unlike yourself
I dreamt about you last night with your sister at the beach
you both ran towards me and then I lost track of you, like you went back into the waves
I love you to the moon and back baby girl
thank you for sharing your life with me
I hope you were happy
forever my baby you’ll be
I love you so much
