A good life we've had
the memories we've shared
I remember the days
you used to run free
the times we would cuddle and play
the hapiness we've found
is greater than any
but now i can see
i see the pain in your eyes
i can feel it when you wander
the good lord is calling
and i know it is time for you to go
we will always cherish the good times we've shared
and the memories we've created
but i love you
for that i can not keep you in pain
your almost home now
at peace you'll soon be
so goodbye we say
only for now
the memories we've shared

Author notes
I am so sorry about this. It really sucks. But I think in your heart you know what you should do. You love your cat and would hate to keep her in pain. I'm so sorry though, I recently lost a cat from old age and was faced with this same decision. But honestly its days are numbered either way. You would just be ending the pain...I'll keep you in my prayers!
