he whispers me secrets.
through a throaty growl.
through an affectionate nuzzle.
through a soft whimper.
he tells me his secrets.
he paws at me.
he lets me take his warmth.
so i listen.
i don't understand what he says.
but i think i know.
he wants me to stay.
he is lonely.
he is the prince.
but no one truly listens to him.
he is different.
i can tell.
