In tribute to Remembering... my MishkaThanks to Nadine M. (May 22, 2003) |

| Ten years have already gone by And I haven't been able to forget you; I still think of you so much, You, my sweet little white companion, my king... In your warm fur, I'd like to slide my hands, Bury my face in your neck for a cuddle... I'd like to wrap my arms around you, squeeze you, In the warmth of your love... My faithful Mishka, I miss you so much... To keep you, I would have liked to stop time... When I lean over your memory, My heart tightens, tears begin to flow... Over and over I relive the infinite pain Of that awful day, when your anguish and fear Mixed with my confusion and grief; I loved you so much and yet abandoned you... I love you so much and am drowned in remorse... What cowardice! What courage, to lead you to death... One last time, I held out my hands to you, You placed your head and your destiny in them, With blind trust, without hesitation, Without a single doubt, without question... Of my soul, you knew every reflection That by instinct and love you detected, And there, to protect my guilt, Modest, you didn't want to look at me... I still feel a deep sense of regret and dismay, I would have liked to find forgiveness in your eyes... From the moment you arrived, you gave me everything You faithfully followed in my footsteps, Like a guardian angel, you never left my shadow Protector, but also confidant, on my darkest days; You were always by my side, tenderizing me, And you also knew how to make me laugh in games... Your image, deep in my eyes, is engraved, Your memory, by each of my senses is guarded; Forever, whatever I say, whatever I do, You are there, Mishka, throughout the months that pass... Ten years have already passed, But I'll never forget you. |
