Do I really have to go? I questioned myself many times, you know? If I did, that means you’ll be here all alone without me by your side. I know it’s hard to let things go, trust me, I really know. But doing this will be for the best of us; all of us in this world. My kind is calling for me; they need a new leader. Some dragon that can set them straight, lead them to a better future, keep them safe, and continue their generation until the crown is passed on to another. That dragon they need is me. I have to go and chances of me coming back to you are unknown. I thought about it a lot in my head, I’m sure you did, too, each time you went off to bed.
My love for you will never change. And I know the same for me wouldn’t too. Let’s make this hug last as long as we can and let time fly by. You’re always on my mind. I’m sure I’m sure on yours, too. But you and I know that it is important to take this situation seriously, no matter how painful it could be as we stand. I think I still have that gem you gave me? Wait…that’s right…it was destroyed by Nightmare. That gem was gift to me from you and it meant a lot to me. But what means the most to me is your love. Nightmare could never shatter my love for you just as it could not shatter your love for me.
Take my heart, not literally, I’m sure you know what I mean. Our love will last longer for centuries as long as we hold onto it and never let go. This country needs you and you know that, and my kind needs me the same. You’re a rarity after all on here that adores the sparkly blue gems, and diamonds and rubies that shine brighter than stars at night, too.
The time of me coming back to you, is so unsure to make it true. But if the opportunity ever pops up, I want you to know that I will be there at your doorstep even if it means going through the winter’s cold. I would hug you, carefully of course (due to my size and claws); kiss you gently and rejoice in your embrace. Just thinking about you or hearing your name, makes me happier than you could ever imagine. I love you, I’m sure you know that a lot. And you love me, too. I’m so happy that you’re mine.
Please don’t let go of my heart as I would hold yours and let no one tear us apart. You’re always on my mind as I’m always on yours. My heart makes melodious beats, rhyming along with the pattern of your dancing feet. Do you remember the time we danced in the quiet street, back in Ponyville under Luna’s night? That song that played for us still echoes in my head, I sometimes even mutter the lyrics before I’m off to bed. I have dreams of you us relaxing and when I awake, you them reality.
It’s okay to cry on me, as I know I’m crying on you. I wish we could stay here a bit longer. I wish the princesses would extend my time here and at least find some way to have you with me. I wish there was some possible way we could stay together. But environmentally being wise here, a pony cannot survive under dragon conditions. I don’t think it’s possible for you to relax in a pool of lava or feast on gems, or…meat. I understand why it’s best you stay here. I can easily manage living here, though my job in being Twilight’s assistant is no longer needed. I’m sure she is disheartened by this as much as we are.
I am happy Princess Luna kept her night for us. She knows how much we enjoy being under it together since it was hour of the day I proposed to you. Your eyes widened as your body became racked with anxiety. It was…humorous to say the least. I was a bit sad when you declined and said that I was still too young. But as time grew by and my body did too, we began growing closer. I show no resentment towards your answer when I was young. I was mature enough to understand why. I was not contempt, but…happy that you acknowledge my love so happily. When I proposed again, you saying yes, made my heart leap out in joy. I could have sworn it eventually blew up…twice.
Everypony in Ponyville cheered for us. Twilight cried her eyes out, her being a mother to me, and the others giving us gifts and hugs along with compliments. I never saw you so happy at that time. When you walked down the aisle in that wedding gown, made by you, you looked like a goddess. I was a proud dragon, honestly. I was marrying the universe’s most beautiful mare.
I am going to miss you. I will try to write to you. I’ll even see if Celestia could return my letters to you. I’m sure you would not mind that. At least something to fill up that emptiness we would surely both is feeling on my departure.
The night seems to be over now. I think we been here the entire night without knowing. Today is the day, my love. The day I leave. Tell Sweetie Belle she’s been a great best friend and sister-in-law. I will pay Twilight a visit and tell her my goodbyes, along with the others.
It’s hard…to do this. I don’t know how I’m going to deal with being lonely without you. Nor do I know how you are going to handle this. But we will make it. Our love is strong, may we not forget. Our love is powerful. It is something that the sun shines on to glorify as the night sings it to sleep so that it may regain its energy for another day of happiness.
I love you. I will always love you. I will miss you. When the time gets rough, don’t give up. I will be there. When you are in dire need, in danger…I will be there for you. I will come to your rescue. I am your Spikey-Wikey after all. You’re knight. You’re partner. You’re husband. I am…your dragon.
