Shadows Across The Moon
Can the moon come out to play?
I cannot sleep tonight.
My heart is torn in two,
and a thousand tears
spill from my eyes.
I thought I could never cry
because I used to shed
so many damn tears
until I ran dry,
but the water is running freely,
dripping down my chin.
And I cannot sleep tonight.
What if when I wake,
I find her gone,
another to leave my life,
to break my heart,
and to leave me all alone?
Sweet dreams
won't silence
a fear gnawing deep,
and all my eyes see is darkness
outside my bedroom window.
So, will the moon
come out to play?

Please,
say a prayer for my cat. She might have cancer, and I've had her at my
side for 18 years now. I cannot bear the thought of losing her, but I
know. We can't live forever.

HI Melissa, nice/wonderful poem!!! Im sorry to hear about your kitty, of 18 years. I do hope she gets better. I had a dog once, that had tumors and was blind, he was about 20 years old, lived for a long time that way, and very happy. as a child my pet cat had stomach cancer and we had to put him to sleep, I was a mess for a long time after that.I hope your kitty will be ok and live as long as she is to live on this earth, as happy as she can be. xxxxxxxoooooo
