How we deal:

We all deal with loss differently.
I apparently deal with it by going into depression and writing songs.
Or maybe I was already in depression, and the song just manifested today as a result.
But either way:

I didn't quite finish the song.
It's not about our cat, but I suspect I'll be writing one for her soon.

Here's what I got so far:

Love
Oh what a word it is
Love
Something made to live

There are two camps about it
And they're so divided
To show it every moment
Or only with specific timin'

Can we compromise
Is there a middle line
I vote yes and as for why
Here's an old belief of mine


I love you
The many ways
I love you
We do create
I love you
Such a thing to say
I love you
Each and every day.


Love
Oh what a word it is
Love
Something made to give

Be expressive of feelings
And in delivering
(And that's as far as I got)

Didn't get to complete the second verse, but after that, it'd be the chorus twice. Not a complex song, but lyrically-wise, it changes; the first paragraph of the verse is vastly different in timing than the second paragraph which has vastly different timing from the third paragraph which has vastly different timing from the chorus, so like in a song that has verses, a prechorus, a bridge, and a chorus, it has four different sections, it's just that one of those sections is a postchorus rather than prechorus, and there's effectively two different back-to-back verses rather than verses and a bridge. This is a format I see in some songs here and there, and I felt like writing a song like that, so I did. Mostly.

Didn't quite complete it, but got it close.
​Ah, well.
