My Light
There are some days
when life just gets me down
but when I see I'm in this haze
There's someone who I've found
He can't speak our language
and has tiny paws with pointed claws
whenever I'm in anguish
His whiskers hide my flaws
His perfect pink nose
match his puffy paw pads
he makes my face glow
In a way it never had
These cloudy, sad moments
were like a heavy tumor
my heart is no longer broken
Because of my cat, Boomer
