Twilit Tome

A violet hue in the skies above 
A thirst for knowledge; a love 
Each phrase brings a new delight 
Tomes upon tomes of worded might

A never ending quest to seek 
Ideas new, thoughts to tweak
The shelves in her mind lay bare 
Soon to be filled by this studious mare

A task so simple but so complex
Any mistake she corrects 
Checklist here, quills and ink 
Purple mane, streak of pink

A library in the twilight of dawn 
A baby dragon surpressing a yawn
An owl soaring up above 
And to each, she shares her love

Each novel brings a newfound light 
Inverted thoughts brought upright 
A thirst that cannot be sated
Friends were once overrated

But now she writes a tale so grand 
Each chapter has a helping hand, 
Honesty, loyalty, laughter too, 
Kindness and generosity true

Each page holds secrets and memories dear 
Forged with those she holds near 
Her friends will stay eternally
In pages written mentally

This book began a silhouette 
A shadow filled with old regret 
But as each page retains memories 
The ethereal can now be seen

The pages fill with words galore 
She finishes one and adds in more 
This tome cannot be held or read 
Since it exists within her head

A mare so lonely now has found 
Friendship and some solid ground 
On which to write down history 
And every single memory

Within these pages, never full 
A mare lives a life, never dull 
Friendship forged in day, at night 
And inside the heart of our dear Twilight.
