i can pounce too,
just like a kitten too,
i'd show you how i can attack
i'd give myself from toes to the last
	cell left in my head
ask me
just ask -nicely-
and i'll hide by you
trembling like jell-o
waiting
for you to show me how to pounce
	like a lion cub

KISS ME
and i cry like i melt like my head
	explodes
your hands all soft and floating
know the perfect Words to purr
too many cats?
that's how you make me feel.
all kitten like inside
furry and smiley
swishing my invisible tail
dreaming you could give me it
	all

i won't beg.
i won't pretend.
well, i am.
i want to hide
but not alone this time
let's walk away
for a bit - where they don't
	know to look.
how can we just leave it like
	that?
nothing's finished, you know,
i'll always be this memory, if nothing
	else.
i don't expect or hope for more.
beacause i know that i could never have
the you i love
the way i love
so i'll just sleep and dream
where i know you will always be	
mine.
