Crickets chirped
Frogs blurped
Waves crashed
And stars slashed
The jet black sky
Silence rang on the beach
A tom sat in the wet sand
Where the waves couldn’t reach
His tired paw pads
His heart was broken
For she had spoken
And her words entered his dreams and had awoken
The poor, sad tom
For his heart was broken
He knew the answer would come
Loving a cat with an oath was forbidden
How could he have been so dumb?
Now he had to keep his true feelings hidden
He had gotten his answer
Oh but this poor lover’s heart was broken
Crickets chirped
Frog blurped
Waves crashed
Stars slashed
The jet, black sky
In the distance, whales breached
Mocking the heartbroken cat on the beach
His throat tightened
He knew he needed to move on
But his spirits didn’t lighten
He knew he shouldn’t dwell upon
But the past was to hard to forget
There are no boundaries in StarClan
Cats can love whoever they want
Oaths of a medicine cat are no more
The tom dreamed
But he couldn’t, could he?
The lover’s eyes gleamed
But anything is possible, he thought,
We could both be free
Hauling himself up
