[hometext] => Another poem about my dog Benny... RIP 7-24-06 Im kinda venting.. So it might not be very good
[bodytext] => From the time you were six weeks old.. You were my best friend.. My first true friend.. I can still remember all of the good times that we had together.. Getting to know each other.. You sleeping on my bed with me almost every single night for 6 years.. All of the times we used to wrestle around.. All the times I defended you because you were chewing on the table legs as a puppy.. How much I loved coming home from school just to play with you and be near you.. You always were my protector.. And I was always yours.. You were my loving companion always ready to make me smile and laugh at you.. And whenever you were scared.. There I was with arms held out for you to jump in.. With me you were always safe.. Nothing could hurt you.. But when I was with you I got hurt worse than I had even been before.. It felt as if someone had reached inside of me and pulled out my insides.. Leaving me a hollow mess.. That hurt came when you had to be put down.. And as you lay on my lap with my arms around your head.. You passed away as I watched.. I watched my best friend die in my arms.. And that was by far the hardest thing I have ever had to do.. But I told you that I would be the last person that you saw when you left .. And I made damn sure that promise stayed true.. And now that you are gone.. My insides feel empty.. I feel broken.. I cry all the time.. And I think back on the times that we had and smile.. And I tell myself that I would give up anything just to spend another day with you.. Some people don't understand why I'm so upset.. But I dont care.. If they dont understand then thats their problem.. You you more than a dog to me.. You were my best friend.. My companion.. And a part of my soul.. Its impossible to forget something that is a part of who you are.. And I know the pain will eventually dull.. It will never completely go away.. But there isnt a thing in this world that would make me give up all of the amazing moments I have shared with you.. From all of my heart and soul I love you Benny and thank you for giving me the most amazing moments that I will cherish for the rest of my life..
