Listen to poem:

I don't want you to die for me

Lost in this simple game playing out a satisfying life A partner engaged with me, never causing strife Softly, we tremble together in the summer warmth tonight Before I met you, I wasn't happy; alone in my own sad dim light You're a beautiful cat; I am the mouse caught within your sight I feel immortal holding hands; as the sun sets to benight Vulnerable, all though knowing the space between us is airtight I'm satisfied; for you are all I've ever wanted, finding it came at a more than reasonable price! I don't need you to die for me; I need you to live life out with me, never, ever, thinking twice!
