Colty,
When I looked into your eyes. I saw fear. I saw pain. You were just standing there, looking sad, looking lame. Even though I may not be, I feel that I'm to blame. I fought for you for so many years, but this time I could not help. You weren't in my hands any longer. It was destiny that chose you, and thought your job was done. Even though i may not agree, I had to let you go. You were there for me through thick and thin, and I was there for you then. You left hoofprints on my heart, that could never fade away, nothing could erase them for you were so great. Even though you couldn't speak you said so much to me. You made me smile, and dried my tears. We have so many memories together I could never let them go. It makes me sad to think that we can't make any more, and the past is what we have now. I wil always love our memories, but they will never fill the gap in my heart that was made that day. I never in a million years wanted to see you like that, that's not how i wanted it to end. I knew your spirit and your sould wanted to leave you, but you held on. You stayed strong to say goodbye to me for the last time. That was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, was to let my best friend go. Sometimes I think, if there was anything I could have said to you, but I guess it wasn't the words that mattered then. You weren't just a horse to me, and noone will ever understand. Thankyou for being there,and being my bestfriend. Snips Bewear, I will love you for all of eternity, with all I have to give. I say goodbye to you one last time, and I thankyou for all you did for me and made me who I am.

Love,
Ashli
