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...
