10

You were my closest friend when we each found
A certain longing hid beneath our looks.
Our burning for each other did abound
Like romance tales in Golden Oaks lost books.

You were my cloud at dusk, when we parted.
You were so far away, through tears and dark.
Just like a storm, my long sorrows started.
I desired your complexion, white and stark.

You were my marble Venus: evening star,
But Twilight's mercy is this proved way:
That what at start of night seems all too far,
Is within loving grasp in blessed day.

Though now the spell on us is overthrown,
I shall be bound to you by love alone.

Author's Note

Rainbow Dash said Scootaloo should write poetry, so she ended writing a sonnet for Sweetie Belle summing up the story of their relationship.

I'm gonna try to post this around on Tumblr and Fanfiction. Probably should have done that in the first place. If you're reading from there, greetings! If you're someone who has already found me on FimFiction at the time of my posting, thank you for giving me feedback and emboldening me to post this other places. You have all been friendly and polite, and I greatly appreciate that.
