A colt decides to become a child of the night after having what can only be described as an epifany about how bad his past was. Little does he know it but his life is going to be changed... forever. This is in poem form though. Hope you enjoy.

A poem/ballard inspired by Luna's banishment to the moon and of course, Children of the night, particularly the opening dialogue which I will link at the bottom of this description. I hope you like this is work of poetry as it is my first MLP poem/ballard.

The poem goes a bit like this.

A colt feels guilty about his old past and looks to Luna and decides to become a child of the night so he can repent his past and start afresh. Little does he know it but his life as a child of the night is going to be very eventful. Starting with Celestia's wrath upon discovering the cult, to the children of the night taking over Equestria to the ultimate downfall of the children of the night's power over Equestria and the death of our colt now husband of Luna at the end of the poem/ballard and what happens after death to a child of the night.

I'm not sure whether to call this a ballard or a poem so I'm using both. Either way, I really hope you
enjoy this poem/ballard and just mail me if anypony wants more of this.

UPDATE!!!

I am planning on writing a sequel when the Duo Cartoonists bring out, "Heavens Light." which is the sequel to the original video.

A child of a Midnight sun.

Children of a midnight sun.

I look up to you on this cold,cold night.

My heart be heavy of sorrows past,

You stare back down from your heavenly bed,

You see my happiness,

You see my sorrows,

You see all the repent of a blackened soul,

Under her midnight sun.

I lift this all to a moonlit princess,

She sees all my guilt.

Us her children question the day,

The children of a midnight sun.

Celestia's rule is just a kingpin,

We live in a garden of shadows,

Under her midnight Sun.

I sing to ye above the clouds,

The silent ruler of our shadow grove.

She smiles her beautiful smile,

We are her children in the moon,

Under her midnight sun.

Under her midnight sun,

We are strong as one.

Under her midnight sun,

We seek repent.

Under her midnight sun,

We become her children.

Tonight Heaven's fire burns bright,

Witness to us,

The children of a midnight sun.

She see's us at our sleep by day,

She see's at our play by night,

Ponies are meant to be to the day,

But my heart still choses to say,

"Luna- blessed be your name!"

We rule the night like Kings and Queens,

Under her midnight sun,

The children in it's basking glow.

I turn my heart up to you,

Empty me of my sin,

Let me play in a shadow garden,

With the children of the night.

My family be with you now,

Your wings pulling me into your embrace.

A child of the Midnight sun.

For life hath be this way,

For it be the way of the night.

The wolves come out to play,

In our garden of midnight shadows,

A child of a Midnight sun.

You love me like a mare to a filly,

And I love you like a foal to her mother.

We be bonded by the heavenly glow,

Of the moon as a midnight sun,

A child of a midnight sun.

A child of a midnight sun,

Shalt be as soldier to his captain,

Loyal to Luna and her kin,

Bathing in her heavenly glow.

I wonder what your sister would say,

If she saw the children of a midnight sun?

I be outcast from the garden now,

Celestia's wrath see the end of all.

I now know what she would say,

If she saw the child of a midnight sun.

An outcast from the towns now,

Nobody dare let us close,

The pain of our loss is too much to bear,

It's time for the kingpin to fall,

By a child of a midnight sun.

We arrange to see the rule of night,

We children of a midnight sun,

Shalt make her repent,

The day she ever crossed our paths.

We be the children of a midnight sun,

The silent army gathering in a midnight sun.

You beg and repent as the meeting begins,

A meeting between the sun and moon.

Will we see our garden again?

Or will the flowers in the shadows forever wilt?

I head back to our garden of shadows,

A hero to our sacred cause.

Luna, you pull me tight under your wings,

A bond has been forged.

The child of a midnight sun.

I serve you long,

I serve you well,

Still the child of a midnight sun.

My love for you remains forever,

The moon's spell 'tis be the way.

You back at me with dark blue eye's,

My life it be complete this night.

I wonder weather to say,

How my love for you has found no bounds.

You smile back like a mother to her foal,

Loved by a child of a midnight sun.

We meet back at our garden of shadows,

Where I finally confess my love for you.

You ask me to repeat what I said,

Your eye's darting back and forth,

Processing the words from my mouth.

You pull me close and confess to me,

The midnight sun bathes us in white light,

The child of a midnight sun,

Affectionate passion has found it's place,

In our lives as followers of a moon.

People think I was gone long ago,

I say "Not gone- just resting." in the midnight sun.

You know of her but not of me,

Of wife but not of husband,

Not of marriage but of a queen,

A unknown child of a midnight sun.

We still want our life of dreams,

Of a black black world,

Where the children of the night come out to play.

The kingpin will finally fall,

And we shall rule as king and queen,

A child of a midnight sun.

When Celestia falls,

We arrive in force.

Raise the pennant and raise it high,

For the children of a midnight sun shalt come to stay.

We children take back the night,

Total darkness shalt surround the world,

We'll rule side by side as king and queen of night,

Luna and a child of a midnight sun.

Our kin shall rule the land again,

The children of the night are supreme,

We rule this land with a moonlit hoof,

Casting shadows across our past,

Destroying what was her sister's rule.

Luna with a husband and son,

The child of a midnight sun.

Under her we rule as one,

Under her we rule with force.

We cast our shadows out across this kingdom,

A kingdom of day now a kingdom of night.

Us her children serve and defend,

For the children of day shall come again.

Against the children of a midnight sun.

I meet them now at this place for war,

It be night that shall rule today,

The pennants high we begin the charge,

The flowers in shadows will bud again,

Thanks to the children of a midnight sun.

She kneels before our broken bodies,

Her children die in this field of Hell,

She finds me among the few,

Somehow alive at the front,

I feel my time is up in the garden of shadows now,

I see your sobs as I close my eye's,

I see your pain and sorrow,

A lost husband and child of a midnight sun.

We are oppressed again,

Waiting for our chance again,

To rise up and take back the night,

We few still in their memories.

Luna still rules,

But it be with a heavy heart,

But remember I'm not gone- just resting,

Resting among the stars,

A child of the stars now,

A ghostly ruler of the night,

A child of a midnight sun...
