My Companion

Soft and furry

You tend to scurry

Afraid of loud noises

You run in a hurry

Always so delicate your little white socks

You are always so gentle as your round body rocks

As you get the intense urge to zoom

I can often find you sunbathing in my room.

As you kneed the dough of my thighs

I think about myself being alive

I can't even image a day without you here by my side.

I still think about how lucky I was that you picked me,

Regardless of how scared you were to come out of that cat tree.

A companion for me.

A companion for you.

We met on that fated day, just us two.
