Unrequited Love
Gentle dove with crystal breath
with plumes that touch my heart
you bring a message of my death
when you say we'll be apart
I will not leave, here I must stay
for my heart remains with you
darling, love will find a way
if you could believe it too
---
Dove looked down with sorrow
and shook her head once more
there can be no tomorrow
for with me, you cannot soar
You are a cat, I am your lunch
what future could we share
I hear you, but I have a hunch
you'd eat me, without a care
