Eagerness and impatience mixed around when I could not place you
in your little spot of comfort.
I searched around
again
hoping that you would pop out and say
"Bazinga"
But, it was not to be done.
You was not in your usual spot.
You was not welcoming me with your tails
swinging back and forth
You was not there
when I came back home
How shocked I was
thinking that you only went away
but indeed
you chose to leave me at this miserable stage
I could not bear it
the thought of losing you
was unbearable
my mother's tears
echoed my grief
my father choked back a few words
but I could not bring myself to accept it
not now
not ever
I started to wonder
when was the last time I bathe you
when was the last time I walk you
when was the last time I hug you
when was the last time I kiss you
when was the last time I feed you
when was the last time I say goodbye to you
I miss you so very much
my dearest friend
my beloved doudou
I miss you
Where are you?
