Dear Old Friend
Dear old friend
Dark day clouds
Now hide away your sun
As I still open up
A morning door
Hoping to find your feline face shining in
No more furry hugs
Inquiries to where I was
Just my missing thoughts
Of all your cries
And why I never heard the one
That said
Your nine lives will soon be up
I’m sure you left
To spare one of us
The pain
But, Oreo
Never will you
Ever be replaced
As I watch my phantom halls
Of whites and greys
And a lap
Now filled with a truly empty space
