I deserve the pain
I deserve the shame...

Sitting alone in the shadows
Crying from the pain...

For the moment you weren't gone
But tomorrow you'll be there...

Walking in a town with people
Unseen, unheard...

Surely you don't care for me
I have no special talent...

I wait, wait, and continue to wait
I'm waiting for you and I continue to wait...

We sit beside each other awkwardly
As we stare into each others eyes I see...

Hey mum,
Nothing much is happening...

When I see you're smile from thinking of me
I can't help but cry tears you cannot see...

I see a lonely boy looking for hope
And a longing love for someone...

Hold your breath
Do you hear that...

(This is a poem about a creature I made up like...
Feline features, ears and tail...
