Writer's Block: Animal magnetism

[Error: unknown template qotd]

You know, this is a rather interesting question. It reminds me of when I was talking to my sister just before christmas about her "fursona" (she's a borderline furry XD) and she mentioned that she'd pretty much always seen me as a cat. Though I do see a lot of cat like characteristics in me, it's never been one of the first animals I would go to when thinking of myself.

I've had, for the longest time, a personal "totem" of sorts. Animals I relate to sort of emotionally and spiritually. They are the sea turtle, the raven, the crow, and the spider.

( long-winded explanation )

As for what I would chose to be? Really... I want to be a tree... lol But really, I think I'd want to be a pet cat since they usually have such a nice, lazy life. No responsibilities, no worries. That would be lovely. Are my answers different? Yes and no. Why? Because life is like that, darlings. Full of dualities and double meanings and lies that could be truths.

::: Desire :::

of all the things in this life
I want but can't have
you're the most painful
I reach for you
and just as I think I'll catch your hand
it's not there
I've so much
doubt
whenever I'm around you
I'm afraid
you'd have to fuck me
to find my scars
you won't, so it's fine
but how I wish I could make a liar of myself
just this once
lay my hand on your cheek
so we can lock eyes
I'll do my best not to cry though
I'm so overwhelmed
I'm dying

::: Seedling :::

if I were to die
I would want for my spirit
to become a seed in the wind
float away
and my last wish
would be that I could land
and tangle in your hair
so that I'd always be
on your mind
