CATS HAVE NINE LIVES

They say Love never Truly Dies

As Cats have Nine Lives

So maybe

When Lovers Die

They Become cats and such

Loving nine times as much

They say Love never Truly Dies

As Cats Have Nine Lives

They prowl the sofas for their lost ones

Until the rising Suns

They say love never truly dies

As cats have nine lives

Death beckons

With each living second

Cat Litter is their grave soil

They say Love never Truly Dies

As Cats Have Nine Lives

They search for crumpled paper hearts

Within the debts of trash

For the stench is truly bearable

Since nothing is comparable

To the kiss of their whiskers

They say Love never Truly Dies

As Cats Have Nine Lives

They respond to such shameless self

Not quite ready for the end

Always looking around the bend

For the one they befriend

They say Love never Truly Dies

As Cats Have Nine Lives

And I’ve been thinking about you

Wanting to see if it was true

And If Death is A Cat

I’m Purring

Interesting and unique with its main metaphor... great description and comparison throughout.
