Night Cat
Step out into the night
The crisp air runs through your fur
Never present is the sunlight
Feline, your world is mine
Allow my being to mold with thine
You walk the line of strength and danger
Your whiskers stinging with cold
As the wind bears truth to be told
Pad on through the opacity
And you will find what your heart seeks
Helpless yet fierce your yowl speaks
It calls out my blackened name
Is something only I can hear
You've struggled to stay tame
As if you were to be blamed
You bared your claws at my savaged world
All around you our angry eyes swirled
Solemn cat, your world is mine
My being has molded with thine
