Doesn't that just beat all?

You are merely a cute ball of nimbus fluff cat.

I pick you up and you purr and chirp,

and even when I go to put you down

you go limp in my arms so I am stuck carrying you.

But in this happiness is something truly sad.

That despite being a human,

the one time I have ever felt loved and wanted

was by you, you cute ball of nimbus fluff.

Even if it was just because I was petting you.

Its still the only time I have ever felt

like I was actually wanted.
