Princess
It has been barely over 3 years
Jan. 25.
Just after 5 pm
She was dead
Princess
she was my dog
my best friend
Though not as tragic to some
than the other event of that year.
that weekend.
It was a Friday the day she died
She had had cancer for a while now
it took a long time for us to know
what was wrong with her.
she suffered for quite a while.
I was right along side of her
I was at a friends
I didnt expect things happen this way
my mom called and asked where I was
she told me we had to go
We were going to say goodbye
I paniced right away
started crying violently
before I even got in the car
I could tell things were tense
watching me fall apart
made it all the more hard
on my dear family
whom were barley holding
their sanity.
When I got to her
Princess
I hugged her
she looked worried
about me
she had no idea
what was coming
I forced the tears to pause on the ride
to the Vet
so
Princess
woulod stop worrying
but I could not
for the life of me
stop my shaking
I was scared
Princess
I love her
I still do
she is still in my heart
I was with her through it all
I named her myself
I taught her tricks
walked her and fed her
I stayed up with her during thunderstorms
and pet her during her final breath
It took a moment
The vet was so casual
just letting us have space
when she went still
i couldnt take it
I broke down
I kissed her on the nose
Princess
I broke down
and left the room
I waited till I could control the sobs
and went back in the room
My family needed me
They were all crying
my dad
the second time I’ve seen him cry
my mom
one of the few
my precious brother
sobbing for the first time
since many years ago
we went home.
we all cried
we all were silent
I wanted a hug
but never got one
they all left me alone
and helped jacob for a while
I figured it was okay
I could get support from my friends
I was allowed to break down too, right?
wrong.
Another tragedy occured that weekend
That sixth grade weekend
Someones dad died
I didnt know until I got to school
but when I learned I knew
I couldnt tell anyone
about her
Princess
She was insignificant
compared to a parent
I stopped knowing what to do
and told barely anyone until things blew over
I never got my closure
I never got my hug
my parents split up
everything crashed
but at least now you all know
what made me depressed all the time
and why I cant really remember much
of sixth Grade
