Jax

At first sight we just had to rescue you
Something pure being trashed, nonsensical
Made sense how we clashed, so we treasured you
Blessed with the name Jax, so we kept it too
So incredible
More than an animal, better than a pet
Knew how to cheer me up when the mental was a mess
Best friend was never vexed by the cards you were dealt
When I came home, pure glee is all that you felt
Gave a smile to your bro, just being you
Looking goddamn cute with everything you would do
Despite brittle bones trying to take over your youth
Made life a squeaky toy and you torn it in two
Injections have left your genetics defenseless
The medicine never replenished your health just
Left you with blood fighting back your good cells
Suicidal hitmen within the shell
In form of white blood cells killing red
Even halos don't protect from the angel of death
And the pain from the stress left a mess of us all
Until the first miracle answered the call
Steroids brought back the rapid type
Also gave you one helluva appetite
But that's all right, long as it brought my nigga back
So we could take more photographs that make us laugh like Nickelback
Kissing bald heads, dogs way to give a nigga dap
Can't get enough of the sound of your pitter pats
I'd lie if I said I didn't wish to get it back
And expulse the masses as simple as sippin' ipecac

I miss you Jax, I wish the cash
Wasn't an issue to help prevent immune system crash
Wish I could've kept your skin intact
Instead of worrying that I'll make you bleed out each time you'd get a bath
Hope you forgave my pessimistic ass
Hope Jesus let's you lick his face until he makes a skittish laugh
In some ways I wish to forget my past
But know my love and memories of you will always and forever last
