I still remember you, my little dude, 

A friendly greeting every morning, 

Absent attitude. 

A pleasant purr, a lover of scratches, 

A gentle soul, even in rough patches. 

And though you were used by a faithless heart who feigned to care, 

You were always true—you were always there. 

Until cruelly taken out of the blue, as nothing remains permanently, 

You were sent away into oblivion, like so many others, 

Snatched right from me. 

But I remember you.
