I flew today. · 1:24pm Jul 1st, 2015
Just another crappy short that I wrote...
A barren wasteland. That's what I call it. Nothing left of our once beautiful home. Those stupid ponies burnt our forest. My family gone forever. All those friends I made over the years. Lost. Slowly walking through the ashes of trees I find myself standing on the edge of a cliff staring at the sun.
I wish I could fly towards it. I want to spread my wings and soar. So I can forget about all the damage behind me. I wish I could take off. Holding the memories deep within me. And when I die, I die peacefully. Maybe in a lake or in a clearing. I want to die surrounded in a patch of clovers. I only hope I can get to heaven peacefully and forget about all my past mistakes.
A piece of the cliff breaks off. I didn't care. I knew what I was about to do. I was the last of my kind after all. But then I thought... Should I do this?
I could start a new generation. I could be the leader. The alpha. Not a nobody who is just a hunter. A real hero.
Then another voice spoke up... This has been happening for years and years now. The same story. I can be this, I can be that. It never happens!
Slowly edging towards the end of the cliff I spot a small pink flower laying there and pick it up with my jaws. I felt a rush of energy in my body. Then... I jumped.
I was flying. Truly flying. I know, I know. I was falling at the same time. But it felt as if God just gave me a moment to really believe that I could be stronger, faster... better. I felt the wind beneath me claw against my wooden paws. No wonder that light blue pony likes flying so much.
Then I felt a hard surface. But in that short moment. In that last glimpse of my life. I let go of the flower. It sailed into the air. I smiled. For what seemed thousands of years. I smiled. I was going to be with my family again. I close my eyes.
I flew today.
Okie so I just felt like writing this. Most of you probably won't read this because I don't have many followers (hehehe...) But this piece really inspired me to write this.
Listen to while reading this. Might make you feel something.
