wanting what is not possible .. wanting it to last forever

Sassy was an amazing girl, she loved unconditionally, she had the strongest heart and ultimately it was her heart that needed the most attention, she gave herself without a care, she knew when I needed her most, she would greet me with a run, a wiggle and a smile. 

The wiggle and the smile, everyday without fail, even when she was ill, that little tail would wriggle like a rattlesnake!

How do you replace that, can you replace that? 

The answer is, you don't, you can't, you just want it back, you don't want to replace the love, the feeling you got when they greeted you, the peace you felt when they rested their head on your leg.

You don't want it replaced, you simply want it back.
