And my heart is still in pieces.
One week has passed and it hurts more now than it did the night you left. I look for your sweet face, I sniff the air trying to catch your scent, I listen for you, the way you would settle onto the landing, or the little snores and squeaks you made when you were sleeping.
it’s so quiet, so desperately quiet. People won’t leave me alone for long, I’m not sure what they think I’m gonna do but they’re surrounding me most of the time. I need them and I’m so grateful for them.
And we’re talking puppies. Puppies to heal us, to fill the hole you left. I’m so torn – I want another little one to love, but I can’t replace you. Oh, my beautiful boy, I miss you so much.
