The last time we were together, I cried.
You walked slowly to the left, and I the right.
It was the final night, and I knew it was so
that we were to be apart, when we'd been so close.
But I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.
As you went off to the left, and I to the right.
And now I somberly remember
the painful night before you died.
But something in me makes me wonder.
if you're the one who's still alive.

I'm sorry that your dog had to be euthanized... it's crazy, really, how one thing can stop somebody (or loved pet) from suffering, yet put somebody else through a world of hurt =/. Sometimes we lose what we love so that we can make room in our hearts for others, ne?

At any rate, I really like your poem, it definitely captures emotions well... smile
