on the day
we put him in the crate and
drove to the pet vet meowing
in the room
three fake candles on the table
and a small blanket
while we waited I scratched his neck
hand lost in the soft fur
on the blanket he went to sleep
another needle made his heart stop
my hand still lost
I said goodbye
and left the room
sadness surrounding like
meows
