Venus And Squeak: April 7, 2009

Hard

To be believe

Just four years ago

You entered

Into this world.

Two

Tiny blind balls

Of orange fur.

Even

At this stage of life

The two of you

Manage to provide me

With healing energy.

Soothing

My troubled

And exhausted soul.

As

You squirmed

Among your brothers

And sisters.

While

I fell asleep

While watching you

Suckling from

Your mom.

Chasing away

For a brief moment

The chaotic energy

Which threaten

To destroy my soul.

As

The flashbacks

Had grown more explicit

In their graphic details

About my repressed

Past.

A

Simple act

Of holding you

In my hands

Provide a sanctuary

For my troubled soul.

Even if

Only for a brief moment

Before replacing you

Back at your mother's

Side.

Now

Four years later

I offer you

This small token

Of my thanks

Venus and Squeak.
