The ending of an era.. Is that what you call it?
It could be.. or not.. as it's not really an era. 
It's over half my life. 

The tenth of August, 2004.. The day I celebrated my birthday because I was on a holiday when I actually turned eight years old, which was five days earlier. I knew I was going to get a bunny as a gift, because the bunny I got the year before that passed because of cancer. White, with a few black patches and blue eyes.. 
He was still small, only just old enough to be bought, and he now was mine. Bambi.. Just some name the average 8-year old can come up with.. nothing fancy, just a name stolen from a character in her favourite Disney movie at the time. 

Ever since that day, he has always been there. Whenever I needed someone to talk to... even though that might sound ridiculous... he was there. 

Yes, he was 'just' a pet, incapable of talking back, but I had a connection with him.. or at least it seemed like it. 

It feels like half my life has just been thrown away... Although I know it was time for him to go.. I still hate the fact he's actually gone now. 

After eight years and twenty five days in my presence, he passed away, he'll forever be in my heart.

I'll miss you ♥
