• The blade cuts into his flesh
    Blood wells out as I look in horror
    I want to scream
    Cry my eyes until they bleed
    And my throat constricted
    And my eyes pricked
    But I did neither
    Because I couldn't do anything
    Only smile and say 'it's okay'

    Her warmth was comforting
    She looked at me with those cute eyes
    So I obliged and softly pet her
    Soft silky fur
    And she purred in content
    The sound unusually loud
    But just as comforting
