It is a stormy night in June, scents of the ocean and birds fill my nose. I see the sunset, its a beautiful pink and orange, the ocean glows in the evening sun. I am running fast down the beach board walk, the cool wind is ruffling up my fur and then faster and faster, until I approach what I have been looking for, a sparrow. I crouch down in stalking position and wait for the moment to pounce, and then BAM!
I'm woken up, the air is humid and hot ,the sky is grey and I can see lightening in the distance the dreamy scents of flowers and birds are replaced with the very real scents of angry, sickly cats and city streets.
My family and I have been living under the main bridge to the city for quiet some time now.
Some days it's harder than others, the humans will just throw their trash at us ,and splash us with their cars, for no reason at all, other than that we just don't matter to them.
I walk into the camp of cats, looking in their eyes is worse than looking in a dead cats eyes ,because at least they are at peace ,but these cats? they aren't.
They are sad and tired, I can see it in their eyes can always see in another cats eyes what their feeling or going through.
It's like a super power, or maybe a curse. Maybe it's something I could get rid of, if I just tried harder, if I wasn't so fucking sensitive all the time.
I walk down the dirt path and climb into my little corner where My family sleeps. I settle myself down on a dirty and matted old cat bed, cuddling up under the last patch of warm sun that the evening sky has to offer. Soon the sky turns fully dark gray and the sun fades away, and with it a bit of my soul fades too.
"I'm so god damn tired of this place"
I mumble to myself quietly, so quiet I'm sure no cat can here. My limbs are tired from all the cat fights and my head aches.
