The longest day of the year

They say today is the longest day.
I believe it too
It's what They say.

I spent time with my tears today.
I needed to.
They have a lot to say.

I've hurt the ones who care about me.
I know they still care
But I don't make it easy.

This hurt is enough.
This pain is enough.
I don't know how I've kept it up, but I'm done.
I am going to end this garbage. Things are going to change.

I swear it Will be so.

She deserves so much more.

Tiny Tawney Dancer or Tiny, as she was generally known, was a beautiful desert sand colored chihuahua.

She lived for nearly 17 years and went to places that I have never been.

She went to Alaska.
I've never been there.

She went to the top of my head.
I've never been there either.

She dug deep into the hearts of my grandparents and myself.
It turns out that there were holes in there that she filled perfectly.

I got to say goodbye last Sunday.
I caressed her.
I told her that it was ok for her to go now.
...
...
...
It still hurts that she's gone.

R.I.P. Tiny Tawney Dancer

My dog died on Thursday.
I found out today.

She was very special.
I might not be here today if she had not been there then.
