I close my eyes and fall asleep
I hear you crying out into the night
I go to the door and look
You are not there
Why are you haunting me?
I ask for forgiveness endlessly
I go back to my room and start to cry
I fall to my pillow and soak it with tears
My eyes are red and stinging
I gasp for breath
Between sobs I ask for forgiveness once again
Asking for a sign that you accept
I never wanted this to happen
I'd change what happened if I could
I reach for a tissue to dry my eyes
But the tears keep flowing
I move to my closet and pull out a box with your picture on it
I open it and look through old pictures, drawings, poems and possessions
All that hold your memory
I miss you more than words can say
And I feel regret and heart ache beyond belief
I put the box down and slowly cry myself to sleep
Dreaming of your haunting cry
Crying out for help
Crying out for your life
Crying out for someone to care

This poem is about my first cat. He ran away when Deva was born because he felt unwanted. I always paid more attention to the kittens, than I would to him. So I feel that it's my fault that his life was taken.
I wrote a letter to him, that i will later post |
