I came across a stray today
an emaciated little feline
from me she did not shy away
her jaw disfigured, a deformation
scary she appeared to be
such a ghastly figure
still she came over, loved me
and I loved her back  
I wondered if no other ever gave her kindness
due to her appearance
  she was such a sweet creature, affection relentless
all she wanted was love

and I cried when I had to go
