Whispers of a Cat’s Love

In the Silence of Their Gaze, They Heal What Words Cannot

By Jason “Jay” BenskinPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

In the stillness of a quiet room,

A soft paw reaches through the gloom.

No need for words, no sound, no plea,

Yet in that touch, love’s plain to see.

--

A gentle purr beneath the night,

A flicker of eyes, gold and bright.

They sit beside your deepest sigh,

Though you may break, they never cry.

--

In silent ways, they seem to know

The hidden pain you never show.

They press their warmth against your fears,

And comfort what you hide in tears.

--

They ask for nothing, give you space,

Yet in their presence, find your grace.

A love so pure, so softly laid,

It never boasts, nor seeks parade.

--

Through every storm, each aching part,

They never leave, they know your heart.

Beside you in the darkest days,

Their quiet love will never stray.

--

In every purr, in every stare,

They whisper softly, "I'm still here."

And in those moments when you fall,

A cat will stand, and love through all.
