On My Own
Demeter was what I guess you would say a less fortunate cat. She lived on the streets of London, in a old alley that was a complete reck. There was trash everywhere, rusty old tin garbage cans, and damp, disgusting card board boxes. Welcome home.
But down a couple of blocks, and a few streets was the Jellical junk yard. Everyday she would envy those cats, wishing she could become one. No thanks to her mother. Her mom wanted to be famous, a glamour cat. Because of that she was never welcomed there and forced to live on the cold pavement streets. But one cat caught her eye. The very one that refused to let her join. Munkustrap, the Jellical protecter and next in line to be the leader. She would always wish that he would accept her one day, become her friend and maybe even mates! But only in her mind.
Demeters POV
It's that time off the year again. The Jellical ball. Never invited, loner cat on the streets, me. They sing and dance the night away, mocking me. Because we all know that I will always be alone with no friends, no family, no Munkustrap to turn to.
And now I'm all alone again nowhere to turn, no one
to go to
Without a home, without a friend, without a face to
say hello to
But now the night is near
And I can make believe he's here
Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head
On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me
In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever
And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us
I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him
The world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers
I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me
His world would go on turning
A world that's full of happiness
That I have never known
I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own
Whipping away my tears I can sightly see the Jellical's finishing another perfect ball. That I will ever become a part off. If only...
