We’ll miss you Cassie
Cassie,
I heard your breathing across the room.
Is death going to take you?
It’s way too soon.
I saw the pain in your beautiful eyes, and if I could ease it,
I would surely try.
I saw the slowness, in your once strong step
Please Cassie, lay down and try to rest.
I saw the pleading in your tired, tired face
Can you go to a safer place?
I feel the confusion, that you must feel
Oh Dear Goddess, is this pain really real?
If you could lay down and just go to sleep
The pain is gone now and you have final peace.
We may have only known each other less than a week, but please know that your “Mum” and “Dad” fell in love with you the second we saw you and we never stopped loving you.
Your sisters, Gypsy, Chelsea and Leah; your grandparents Pat and Jim; your Aunt and Uncle Sheila and Ben hardly got to know you, but they all loved you; the same as you loved them… unconditionally.
The doctors and assistants who supported and cared for you in your sickness, watched over you day and night not because they had to, but because they truly cared and loved you.
You left tiny sweet puppyprints upon all of our hearts.
We will all miss you terribly Cassie,
Cassie Ferr
