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
