She Cried Last Night
By Malcholm Dark
She cried last night...
She wanders the
house
She speaks loudly
To doorways
Windows
Closets
The ceiling
And to me.
She searches for her love
Lost recently
Death by old age
I walk to a door
She follows--she
waits
Hoping for hope
A glimpse of him.
She
sits where he died
Where he curled up
And said good-bye
She waits
She calls
Never knowing
Always asking.
She cried last night
I looked to see
Her blue
eyes
Slightly glazed
Looking through me
Looking through
sadness
Looking for him.
My cat cried last night
And all I could do...
was cry with her.
Good-bye
old dude, we miss you.

Malcholm, so sorry about your cat. My two birds died recently. I know it is not really the same thing, but losing anything hurts. Hope you feel a bit better..... I hope we all do.
