Write a poem on the theme of 'Lost and found'.

Blink To Life

The black cat winks And thinks That their love will be unnoticed To the icy ,mechanical concepts of Unrequited love Cold from the human Exuding from their warmth Blood in their veins Nerves telling Showing Rushing to spark color into flesh Unto others in touch How to feel loved Moved in all angles Acuteness of a golden ratio Between mind and body and spirit How lonley the cat must feel To not be able to hear it To deserve the touch But not receive the blood in it For when they wink they wink to the stars Because the stars know to twinkle back But the human winked back And so the language of love The bridge built on rivers of life The human folly Was broken The human knew that when you learn To speak You forget language You lose expression When you find it So the cat nuzzled And purred Rubbed against the humans cheek Walked across their collarbones on the bridge Now feeling a bridge to walk across In an Unknowable distance from each other Somehow The human knew the stars wink too. And found love in what they were lost in. Decides to speak with their eyes And say ā€œI love you too.ā€
