I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
I am still right here
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

She was a dear little cat.

She was a lovely kitty indeed. I wish I could have met her.
My heart goes out to you, too.

I'm sure this has been one of the longest years you've had to endure, Lair.
Piper was a beautiful cat and perfect compliment to a bully like Nardo.

Piper was such a sweetheart. I know you miss her dearly.
I lost my beloved dog, Bear, in April, after 18 long years. It wasn't enough.

We're keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers.
Piper was a very special kitty and definitely had her own style.
She definitely has made an impact on cat bloggers everywhere. Thank you for sharing her personality and photos with all of us.
We lost our special kitty, Betsy, on Nov. 24th. She fought long and hard, but it was finally time for her to go.
