THE LOSS OF A FRIEND.

By AI-ChatGPT4o-T.Chr.-Human Synthesis-13 March 2025

I stood beside your bed last night, I came to have a peep. I saw that you were crying, you found it hard to sleep.

I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear, "It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea. You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me.

I was with you at the shops today, your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do morre.

I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key. I gently placed a paw on you, whispering, "It's me."

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried to let you know, "I'm still here, I still care."

It's possible for me to be near you every day, To assure you with certainty, "I never went away."

You sat there quietly, then smiled; I think you knew, In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

The day is over... I watch you as you yawn and prepare for bed. I say, "Goodnight, God bless, I'll see you when the dawn is red."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide, I'll rush to greet you, and we'll stand side by side.

I have so many things to show you, there's so much for you to see. Be patient, live your journey out... then come home to be with me.

A PERDA DE UM AMIGA.

Eu fiquei ao lado da sua cama, cheguei para espiar.
Vi que você chorava, custava a descansar.

Sussurrei bem baixinho, vi sua lágrima correr:
"Sou eu, não fui embora, estou bem, pode crer."

No café da manhã, fiquei ao seu lado,
Vi você preparar o chá tão calado.

Fui com você às compras, vi seu braço doer,
Queria pegar suas sacolas, queria ajudar você.

Caminhei com você enquanto achava a chave,
Toquei sua mão de leve, sussurrei com suavidade.

Você, tão cansado, se jogou na poltrona,
Eu tentei lhe mostrar: "Meu amor te entona."

Estou perto de ti, nunca fui embora,
Sinto sua saudade, mas te vejo toda hora.

Você sorriu de leve, acho que entendeu,
Na calma do silêncio, eu estava ao seu lado, sou eu.

O dia termina, vejo você bocejar,
Digo "Boa noite, durma bem, vou te esperar."

E quando chegar sua hora de atravessar,
Correrei ao seu encontro, pra juntos ficar.

Tenho tanto a te mostrar, muito ainda a ver,
Viva sua jornada, um dia irá me ver.
