Somethn̈g I wrote while grieving a loss

[Oooo1]

Ode To My Cat
The day is here, I knew it would come
I shed a million tears, and then some
You look at me, then turn away
With all of the pain on your face of a life spent waiting
I'm so sorry, I cry out
But oh those words you've heard before
Its time now to see the truth
Its come now, it has ran out
Let your heart see the times you ignored me, while I quietly
followed you back and forth
You had more important things to do
I know this because you told me
That pain I remembered
Yet I still waited year after year
Then we grew old and I older
I feal that death is coming and my end is near
"Oh but you dont understand" I yelled out loud
What kind of power is supposed to be, my higher self?
I yelled at the sky and fell on my knees
Is there any mercy? But theres no mercy for me
You bring the one with the big eyes, the abandoned one and lay him before me
Knowing my heart will melt but my mind knows whats coming
How cruel is it that he's only to borrow, not for keeping?
So in my stupid human way of thinking
I turned some of my soft side away
While just giving a glimps of my hearts truth, thinkin it would ease my suffering
On this day now Im begging
Please not today I will try harder
Too many days spent on chains of fear to love, shackles of sorrow
Oh how much greater my life could've been, if Id have been, only half of the sweet soul you were
Oh what a gift Id been given!!
Thank you ,Thank you for coming into my life
I hope that I will see you again
Although not deserving
I've so much to learn, much to learn before that can happen.
I will remember you forever
I will show my true heart, be vulnerable and transparent
Then maybe Ill be set free
And leave here to see the Heavens! Thats the reason ,thats the lesson.Sweet Soul, up above is where you belong
Sail on , Sail on!
