Beneath a lone tree, the black cat sits,
Silhouetted against a sunset that slowly quits.
Blooms in pairs share the last warmth they get,
Yet the black cat remains, a shadow of regret.

Brown cats dart by the vibrant river's flow,
Gray cats gather beneath the mango trees' shadow.
White cats with kittens, a scene so sweet,
But the black cat stands alone, its solitude complete.

Its shadow stretches on leaves of autumn's decay,
A solitary figure as the sun slips away.
In fading hues, a tale of belonging untold,
Loneliness entrenched in the black cat's fold.

As night descends, a moonlit dance begins,
Stars above witness the black cat's lonely sins.
Whispers of the wind echo a plaintive meow,
Yearning for companionship, it wanders, wondering how.

The world spins on, oblivious to its plight,
The black cat searches for solace in the night.
Amongst the shadows, where loneliness weaves,
A plea for company, the black cat grieves.

In the silence, under the pale moon's gleam,
The black cat dreams of breaking free from this cruel scene.
A wish to share the company that others find,
To leave loneliness behind, in the depths of its mind.
