Your face captured my attention
And those eyes so hazel green
A quick glance to the left of my
Computer screen and I saw this
Beautiful black male cat was
Tested FIV positive
Now my heart aches--yearns for
You, my handsome boy
My heart goes out to you
I am so sorry, dear one
That it had to be this way
Tears clog my eyes and sobs
Fill my throat
My heart is pounding in my chest
Now I want you all the more
My trembling lips can barely even
Mouth those four whispered
Words of comfort
"I love you, Nero!"

He set down the forks, spoons, and knives.

he put out the plates

one, two, three, four, fiv-

"Hey, honey?"
yes mom?
"He's not coming back. Don't waste space on the table."
but if he comes home,
it would make him really mad if I didn't set a place for him

"You don't need to worry about him anymore. We are safe here."

He picked up one fork
one spoon
one knife
and one plate

and put them back in the cupboard.


At least that's one less cup to pour...
I just kinda let this write itself. Sorry is not exactly happy :)

its been a year and
I still don't know w
hat to say when so
meone asks me abo
ut the scars. My fri
ends tell me I look t
he same as I did fiv
e years ago and I a
m relieved, nothing
has changed. She te
lls me she likes the
heart shape my face
akes but I feel a little
broken when I see na
rrow noses and almo
nd eyes. The song yo
u burned for me two
years ago still feels fa
miliar but our friends
hip feels like it's only
taking small baby st
eps forward and I a
m afraid we are too g
entle again, unsure. I
miss it, but I don't. I m
iss it. I don't I don't I
don't. Things are wobb
ly again. I'll be here.
