'Like Family...'
They'll all say it
as often do,
"Oh gosh, I'm
so sorry for you..."
They will try
to be thoughtful
on your darkness'
view
Finally, ejectin'
a cliche' held true,
"I know how you
feel, 'cuz they were
like family to you"
Yet, what's sadly
missed is the reality
you live thru, losin'
"a pet" they maybe
But for all who know
the love of animals...
They're more than,
"LIKE" they ARE
Family...

Perfectly expressed, PoetikOne. Pets are integral parts of a family whose absence is palpable. I'm sorry for your loss. ❤🐶🐱

I have never lost a pet before it's time, but still is never easy.
Thanks Poe for sparking memories of when they were with me.

Well said. Sometimes my animals are far more comforting than my family. I know they are part of the reason I can get through the ruff times. To loose them has always left a hole in my heart that I wouldn't want to fill with anything else. This may sound strange but, I would rather feel the pain of the loss, than try to forget them.
