They Don't Know My Secret

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Celestia: All it takes is one.

One pebble tumbling down.

That pebble hits somepony, turns

Their smile upside down.

That pony reaches home.

Their frown becomes a tragedy when

One hit by another stone

Trips up, and blames the first one that he sees...

All the very best,

All love I can spare.

The brightest dreams of ponies should be

Freed, upon the air.

They don't know My secret,

What I've left behind.

Regrets best left unspoken,

Remembered to remind Me...

Debts owed, well past their due.

Punishments left 'til My end.

That Judgement Day, at last I'll pay

For crimes I cannot mend.

Two ponies sit in jail.

The jail, overcrowded, sends

Killers on the rail.

The royal guards, confounded...

The Killers set to torch,

The town of Appleloosa.

Many-an Apple scorched,

The killers free to loot.

May all your brightest dreams

Find life beyond the seams.

And the tapestry of life be bright,

No matter how dark it seems. But

They don't know My secret,

What I hid away.

The measures taken 'gainst these threats,

The price of a sunlit day.

Now, on this glorious night,

Strong in Our determination.

May the Fires of a Universe

Cry out, against obliteration...!

The scent of burning Apples,

Carried on the wind.

A family uprooted when the

Apples lost their kin.

Three fillies forced to grow,

One's cutie mark a sin.

No more would this Sweet Belle toll,

She fled the killers' rictus grin.

Our tapestry, be bright.

Burn free, O kindest light.

All ponies be united

Be well, into this fight.

They can't know My secret,

The fight lost long ago.

When Nightmare Moon's dear Sister was

Uplifted, 'gainst Her foe.

Celestia was lost.

A night mare in her stead.

The Tyranny of light did cease,

As an Alicorn fell, dead.

The Sweetest Belle lost to a sister,

Fled the grisly scene

A pain rarely imagined, drove

Both into the wild green.

The Wild Horses swelled,

An assassin found her place.

Two sisters found lives of surprising

Harmony and grace.

This herd, a force to bear.

United in pursuit of life

Our enemy lies, there.

No true personification of our strife...

They don't know the secret,

Hid well inside my tale.

How circumstance that burns us makes what

Life we find now, pale.

Only through the burning of a

Soul through Life's cruel game

May we find the sweetest fruit our lives could

Ever hope to obtain.

Yes, Sweetie Belle, a criminal, found

Meaning and true life.

Rarity did find true love,

A dragon's loving wife.

The bonds we share are everything,

Together, we outlast.

The time is almost here to take

A new step from the past...

All the very best, as we

Herd together, now.

Every fibre of your being keep the

Universe in tow.

They don't know a secret,

They would not understand.

We cannot help the roles we play;

The measures they demand.

Though we are damned to burn, may the

Memory of Light fly, free.

To feed the Sacred Fire with

Life and energy.

Here we are, it's time. Ride well, O sisters kind.

Remember every colour, every venture, every line.
