This poem is based off the many warriors who seem to lose everyone they hold dear. There are two voices in here, the cat who's losing everyone and the cat who's trying to comfort them. I hope you like it!
I cannot take this anymore
Everyone's lives are falling short
Wish I could turn back time
Wish I could save their lives
You can't control who lives or dies
Not even StarClan writes the cycle of life
But they can give nine lives
And they can heal a fatal slice
And they can see death in advance
And they can give a second chance
But if they saved everyone
We would be overrun
Too many souls for the land
Too few of the clans
But there is more than one lake
There is more for us to take
We can expand where we lie
Nobody has to die
It's not just ours for the taking
There are others in the making
Treasure always grows old
And then you find new gold
I don't want things to change
I want things to stay the same
I'll get it all back someday
All I have to do is wait
Don't waste your whole life waiting
Just start watching and you'll see
What we keep erasing and creating
It's a very special thing
You cannot turn back time
You cannot save every life
You can grieve and shed tears
Or you can love who is still here
You should cherish what you have
While it's still in your grasp
You think you'll have it all someday
But you have it all today
