if i were a cat...

if i were a cat, i would have shiny black fur.
no need to worry about not having nice hair like her.
if i were a cat, i would have eyes as red as strawberries.
no need to worry about contact lens in the mornings.

if i were a cat, i would think of only food.
no need to worry if i was bad or good.
if i were a cat, i would stretch my paws.
no need to worry about my flaws.

if i were a cat, i would chase after the birds.
no need to worry about getting hurt.
if i were a cat, i would hunt for mice.
no need to worry about the house's shortage of rice.

if i were a cat, i would keep happily meowing.
no need to worry about being attention-seeking.
if i were a cat, i would grin at the leashed dogs.
no need to worry about what not to expose on my blog.

if i were a cat, i would all day munch on fish.
no need to worry about a shooting star wish.
if i were a cat, i would hide from the chaos all around.
no need to worry about never being found.

if i were a cat, i would walk with my tail held high.
no need to worry about having lost the love of my life. 
if i were a cat, i would be o so proud of being me.
no need to worry about being victim of abuse and society.
