Poem- do what must be done



                                 

Brutus looking up to heaven  

    If it should be I grow frail and weak and pain prevents my peaceful sleep
            Then you must do what must be done when this battle can't be won

            You will be sad, I understand., Selfishness might stay your hand.

      But on this day, more than the rest,Your love and friendship take the test
We've had so many happy years

                           That what's to come can hold no fears,

                                You'd not want me to suffer, so,

                             When the time comes to let me go

                           Take me where my needs they'll tend.

                                Only - stay with me until the end

                                 Hold me firm and speak to me

                                  until my eyes no longer see.

                               I know, in time, you too will see

                            It is a kindness that you do for me,

                             Although my tail Its' last has waved,

                             From pain & suffering I've been saved.

                           .We've been so close for the past 8 years

                               Don't let your heart hold any tears
