A Pet

Many winters ago,
An ex had a cat named stumpy,
He was white and affectionate,
I feel in love with this furry creature,
Over a three year span,
I grew found of his love,
Till one day he passed out,
To the vet we rushed off,
As I held him in my arms,
And felt his heartbeat slow,
I knew he was leaving us,
To a place I wasn’t to go,
As I held his lifeless body,
And saw flashbacks of his love,
Owning another pet haunted me,
Till another white cat named Kane came along,
We found him at a shelter,
He was a few days from being put down,
A carbon copy of Stumpy,
That old feeling was once again found,
The first night we had him,
He meowed non-stop,
We saved his life,
And today I miss him so much,
