Ever faithful friend, there aways by my side,

help me now help you, your trip to the other side.

Your youthful body , once so strong, now bent and weak,

your place has changed from my side, now down by my feet.

Your tearful eyes as you limp away, the wet spot on the floor,

I feel your pain as well as your shame, you couldn't hold it back no more.

Take your paw and rest it here, here in my open hand,

we will take this trip as we always have, except this one wasn't planned.

I will look into your eyes, let me be the last you see,

I love you my trusted friend, go now rest in peace.
