Losing a Dog: A Bond That Never Fades
The loss of a dog leaves a quiet ache in the heart. Dogs are more than pets—they're loyal companions, family, and a source of unconditional love. When they pass, the grief is deep, and the silence they leave behind is almost too loud. One of the most comforting ways to heal is through words—especially poems that speak directly to the love and connection we shared.
"Waiting At The Door" – A Poem From Dog to Owner After Death
This touching poem speaks from the pet’s perspective, reminding us that even after they’re gone, their love remains close. It offers comfort, peace, and the promise of reunion.
📜 Full poem here:
I was just a pup when we first met, I loved you from the start.
You picked me up and took me home, and placed me in your heart.
Good times we had together, we shared all life could throw.
But years passed all too quickly, my time has come to go.
I know how much you miss me, I know your heart is sore.
I see the tears that fall, when I'm not waiting at the door.
You always did your best for me, Your love was plain to see.
For even though it broke your heart, You set my spirit free.
So please be brave without me, one day we'll meet once more.
For when you're called to heaven, I'll be waiting at the door.
