- >She's sleeping, hat over her head, breathing heavily.
- >You stroke her mane, running fingers through the golden hair
- >Grabbing a tuft, you sniff it
- >The sweet scent of apples and sweat fill your nose
- >She stirs in her sleep, batting her disturbed hair with a hoof
- >You draw away, stepping back, floorboards creaking
- >You watch her from the corner of the room as she wakes
- >"H-hello?"
- >You know it's dark, you drew the thick curtains
- >She moves her head up, adjusting her hat
- >She can't see anything. It's dark.
- >After a while she falls sleep, and you exit the room
- >For months you do this, catching a whiff of her mane, sometimes tasting it
- >Her vision has been failing, she's been receiving bed bug bites once a night
- >Her hearing is suffering, her friends just think she's not sleeping well
- >The doctors know nothing, they think she's growing old
- >Soon you feel confident enough to let the moonlight in at night
- >And stay beside her, your breathing no longer a danger
- >Her perfect orange form in your reach, forever yours
- >No more admiration from afar, she's all yours every night
- >She'll wake up as always, seeing nothing, and fall asleep
- >After several months, she's completely blind, deaf, bedridden
- >She needs help being fed but knows the farm well enough to still buck
- >What a stubborn pony
- >One night, she lays asleep and her body is once again yours
- >But you want more, you want more than the nights with her
- >So you give her your greatest gift, 2 nights of restful sleep
- >She remains unconscious when you bring her out
- >Her dreams are silent in her deep sleep
- >And the third night she wakes up
- >She bucks the trees as she always did, but you were always there
- >She sleeps as she always did, but it's not her bed
- >Her family is gone and she never questions it
- >Her friends are gone and she thinks they left her
- >But you'll stay with her
- >Every day the sun shines on your farm and stead
- >And the apple of your eye remains yours day and night
