Your Pet Loss Poems

'No Need for Goodbye'

by Alexis Freeman
(Tennessee)

I remember you were sick,
And yet I had to go.
I wasn't there to watch you die,
That pain, I hope, I'll never know.
So I never got to say goodbye,
I left with hopeful words.
But it wasn't up to me.
God wanted you back, you see.
And yet, for lack of words, I do not cry.
There is no need to ever say goodbye.
For one day we will surely meet,
In a beautiful open sky.
Where there is no need to cry.
Where no one ever dies.
Where no pain at all is known,
And no goodbyes have ever been told.
