Té amo, from el gato.

I sit on the bed my human sleeps on…
I like to wait,
Sit and insist,
She,
Come to me, to,
Hold me, tight,
But not too close.
It is 10 o’clock.
Where is she?
One day,
I will be a ghost.
She will wish I was here, but,
I will be on the other side,
Flip side of,
This world and universe.
She will be sad not to pet me anymore,
Not to love me anymore, but,
She will honor me, more?
In a memory, and,
All the photography.
A human worries too much for,
The stillness,
The art of,
Make certain,
Capture me in every pose,
Just right, sort of.
Have me still for a moment, to,
Have the whole world admire,
To love me, to love her, too, kind of.
And, yes, to remember when I am gone.
But I am here now.
You can enjoy me now,
Before I go later, pet me now.
I will wait, now.
Because that is what I, el gato,
Is supposed to do, for you, for now.
For my human,
She is my world,
My human smells of beauty, heaven,
All the things to entice a cat,
I will smell her with my nose,
Soon.
I hope she knows this now, too.
Mi corazón, my love, té amo, too.
So take your picture, mami,
I will wait to love on you,
Later on, soon.

A cat’s love.
