Goodbye best friend
Never thought I would like a pet dog.
Never thought I would have PTSD either
Never knew I could receive the unconditional love you gave me
Every night I awoke in terror you were already by my side wet nose on my arm
Everytime the world was too big and overwhelming you brought me back to the small world we shared
Never thought my heart would break so badly when I had to say goodbye
Now the world is big and frightening again and I can't go out or sleep
They offered me a new best friend butI don't know if I have the strength to open my heart again
I don't want to betray the special bond I had with my one and only best friend
For my service dog Hamlet who took care of me for 12 of the best years of my life
