Dying Cat

by A.N.M. - Pisces

Turn off the lights
That have been his only sunshine.
Turn off the blasted television
And forget the wine!

There will be no more
Of this life you adore...
That, for years
Squelched your tears---
Understood all your fears.

Turn off the damn lights!
They are hurting his eyes!
Don't make so much noise!
It is hurting his ears!

Don't go now, my sweet...
Don't go now, PLEASE
As you still tease
Me with hope!


Turn off the lights....
He is gone.
