Tortured Person
Years
Kitty crawls on
My back at night
But I don’t mind
He sleeps with me
It is nice knowing that
There is something that
Wants to be with me
And wants to love me
I see green sparkles in his eyes
Alongside memories of his kitten’s blue eyes
They soothe for I know I have made his life
An enjoyable experience since he was just
A couple weeks old
The feline knows me
He senses what I feel
He knows when to come close and cuddle and
When it is time to play
I wish there were a human this sensitive
That could get me through
Because I know, at best, I only have kitty for 10 more
