I Will Keep You

you stole their birds, they are planning to kill you

You stole my heart ,i am planning to keep you

You stole their fish, they tried to kill you

You stole my world, I gave it for you to keep

They say you  find a  friend in a pet

I found a family in you

Though I talked you didn’t listen

Petting you made me feel listened

And though you slept all the hours

I loved watching you sleep in my towers

They say you bring us asthma

I believed you would never hurt me that far

I loved you

I don't know why I am writing this before you

Actually died,

Am sorry

I cant help and protect you

But I hope everytime you ran into my arms you

Felt safe and protected

‘cause i wanted you to feel safe, I hope you

Felt how I wanted you to feel.
