looking out at a world it's easy to see
why everything is just wrong
and out of place
and pointless
or that destiny and purpose is just some lie
as everything around her crumbles and changes
cotton candy clouds sail across the sky
and she watches them rain chocolate milk on a world that terrifies
the heart, mind, and soul within her little monochrome body
not because the world of checkered hills and three second nights has changed
but because it feels exactly the same
and she could be wrong
and she could fail
and mistakes could happen
the sun might not rise
and her crown only weighed heavier on her head
at not
seeing
pleasing
Her again
and passing every test
like She said she should
saving
the day
her friends
her family
Equestria
being the hero Celestia wanted her to be
and the thought of good not winning
made the world feel even more upside down than it was
where buffalo danced ballet
and applejack lied
and rainbow dash betrayed
pinkie frowned
fluttershy taunted
rarity hoarded
and twilight sparkle felt very wrong
outside of the sun's shadow
where she could be nothing but small
without Her to loom
and order
and smile
and praise
and shine
and approve
