Cash, I loved you, before I even met you. I think, I spent my life building up to that moment, when you would glide into my heart. The day you came home, it was magical. I've never been more enamoured with any creature in my all of my years—and I knew, instantly, that it went both ways.
I'm struggling now, to imagine a life without you. To wake up every morning, and realize you're not waiting for me. That every shower, there won't be a game of chicken with the water. That there will be no more whistling games, and hide'n'seek. That I will never get to hear your sweet little voice, and the contented grind of your beak in my ear as we settle down for the night.
Every minute I spent with you brought light into my life. You saved me, in so many ways. I had hit that bottom, and couldn't drag myself out of the pit I'd dug—but then you were there, and shared your wings. There will never be another like you.
Every person you touched, you changed for the better. You were a living miracle-machine, bringing happiness into every second you spent with them. Alice is devastated-- the day you gave to her was something precious. My mother is holding her hurt in, but it's there. It wasn't just me, that loved you.
I wanted, so badly, for you to stay. But there will be no more pain for you, Honeybutt. You're going to a place where you'll be rewarded for all the wonderment you brought into this world. I will never, ever forget you, or stop loving you.

You touched my heart, you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
You have been the one for me.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
You have been the one for me.
