Bridging The Gap

Another poem, about my relationship with Star.

Oh Star.

When I look

Deep

Into your eyes.

Find myself

Sinking

Ever deeper

Into them.

As if

They're

Of a soul

From another age.

Who's trying to

Communicate with me

But lacking

A common language.

Except

I know

Our bond is

Built upon

Compassion and trust.

Not owner and pet

Like too many cats

And humans are.

Helping each other

In our growth

As citizens

Of this world

Overcoming abusive pasts.

Every morning

Exchanging our scents

This bond is

Renewed and strengthen

With love.
