Poem10

A wounded baby who needs my love.
That's what I thought
When you came into my life.

I was wrong.
You pushed me away when I tried to save you.
You disrespected me when I didn't honor myself.
You surprised me by doing things I never thought you could do.
You are the fighter who proved your dignity.
And yet, you comfort me with your sweetest grace.

A wounded baby who needs my love.
That's what I thought
when you came into my life.

I was wrong.
It was me who needed your love.
You taught me the love no one ever showed me before.

I love you, Max...

Max....my beloved cat.
