Don't Cry

January 3, 2022
By Anonymous


You stomped your feet

The room shook underneath

I looked up to your piety eye

And cried for the very last time

You gave no sympathy

As you clashed the room to only debris

I settled my tail in between my knees

Praying only that you would leave

Instead, you shouted straight at me

That my ears were just a bit silly

My eyes were the shade of tiger lily

That of you always thought of me as greedy

Finally, you stopped 

Only inches from me

And let me go scurry

Into the trees
