New - Pet Loss Poems

New to our latest selection of pet loss poems thanks to Wendi Licursi who has added to our collection of grief poems that you can choose from to commemorate your cherished companion.

Communicating the emotions we feel while grieving the loss of a pet is never easy. Sometimes we feel that we can never do them justice.

Hopefully you will find some poems that will help ease the pain associated with pet grief.

Come back often, we'll continue adding poems to our library as we come accross them. Contact Us to share your poems with us. This way we can all contribute to helping others get through their difficult time.

May I Go?

May I go now?
Do you think the time is right?
May I say goodbye to pain filled days
and endless lonely nights?

I've lived my life and done my best,
an example tried to be.
So can I take that step beyond
and set my spirit free?

I didn't want to go at first,
I fought with all my might.
But something seems to draw me now
to a warm and loving light.

I want to go. I really do.
It's difficult to stay.
But I will try as best I can
to live just one more day.

To give you time to care for me
and share your love and fears.
I know you're sad and afraid,
because I see your tears.

I'll not be far, I promise that,
and hope you'll always know
that my spirit will be close to you
wherever you may go.

Thank you so for loving me.
You know I love you, too.
That's why it's hard to say goodbye
and end this life with you.

So hold me now just one more time
and let me hear you say,
because you care so much for me,
you'll let me go today.

Dedicated to everyone who has ever had to put down a beloved dog.
