The Death of Bobby



Dear Bob the fish
Bringing you back to life is my wish
I didn’t mean to give you too much food
Your death put me in a sickening mood
Even though you are gone, I will always be by your side
I will never forget you and I will visit you until I have died
I miss you buddy, you were the best
But now it’s time to dig your grave and let you rest.
