Passed into the grey
I thought I would die
I thought about suicide
Thought about taking a ride
Never coming back
I gave up, I lost my mind
I thought I'd never smile
I thought I'd be in denial
For the rest of my life
But she came to me
Soft but determined
And when she reached me
She curled into my heart
Purred endlessly
Her walk was like a song
That made you cry
My sorrow was gone
She was the one who healed me
My grieving was done
My heart bore the scars
But I was alive
And no longer
Undone
(I have two of these gentle creatures, and both save me)
