goodbye Little One

my Little One is gone
fell asleep in the afternoon heat

I had her with me for seven years

they'll lay her to rest under a tree,
near to the lakeside

they said they took some pictures of her sleeping,
I'm undecided yet
whether I want to see them when I get home

home...
so much has happened without me there
that I wonder
whether it is my home anymore
or yet another place to adjust to?
