KARMA
I knew a Cat once
Who continued long after
To look Lost
Many years after I had Found Her.
When it Cried,
I could not stop it
And thought then
Instead I must weep with it.
So too I fought to mitigate
Its secret terrors
But this only opened fresh nightmares
Wherein we both screamed uncontrollably for hours.
What part of life had left it so incurably bent
That no action or compassion on my part could successfully straighten?
Sadly, I will never quite
Know if it Loved me
Or knew of the effort I made to connect it
To at least one moment in time that would make it all worth it.
When it died,
I felt I'd lost something nostalgic I'd never touched before,
I mourned for a song whose melody
Had never been sung before.
Will it ever know what it left behind
Something that loved it enough to want
To go with it
Some part of me that left also
Because it couldn't Live without it.
I hope it found what it always searched for and wanted.
Only then can it begin
To know that in this Life
it was undeniably Needed.
I knew a Cat once.
If miracles exist,
I would like to think
it even knew Me.
Perhaps now can she be Healed
Once GOD looses himself Inside Her.
