My pet kitten died yesterday,
I loved it so much.
I am never going to pet an animal again,
I am not gonna do anything as such.
It used to squeak lightly,
It filled my heart with joy.
I played with it, I caressed it often,
To me it was a beautiful living toy.
I used to feed it milk mixed with water,
That I came to know later was wrong,
My lack of knowledge murdered the kitten,
That's why, I decided to dedicate it a song.
The dying moment was so painful to watch,
It tried to squeak but no voice came out,
I started crying, I tried to feed it but in vain,
Alas! All I could do was cry and shout.
At last, it slept in the cardboard box,
Taking it's final breath,
It opened it's mouth and raised it's little claws towards me,
I started to cry more, I wished to halt death.
It had got me in only seven days,
But then, it got taken away.
It couldn't get proper care or nutrition through me,
Hearing that, I had nothing left to feel or to say.
I am sorry that I couldn't save you kid,
I regret that I failed to make us a 'we',
But I promise that you will be born again very soon,
For me to realize that and to see.
I am sorry that I couldn't save you kid,
I regret that I failed to make us a 'we',
But I promise that you will be born again very soon,
For me to realize that and to see.
With this I end my dedicated song,
I wash my tears and will try to move on,
For now, you are gone away from me kid,
You are long long gone...
