Through the Ages

Sunrise sunset. Sunrise sunset.

It comes to a point where anypony would question if there's a point to this insanity. What possible joy can you get for being a princess of the sun?

Cheerful I was, beaming with rays of enjoyment for others. I didn't need a colossal star to do that for me, just being there was enough to make their day shine. Wishing to brighten up everypony's day, I expanded my attempts through a different form. The sun was my answer and they enjoyed it, were grateful even, but something changed over time.

They take my gesture for granted, not even noticing it anymore; too blinded by the light I cast for them.

My orb shines, yet my desire has dimmed out. Why continue when no appreciation is given in return?

My reasoning for doing this has no meaning behind it anymore.

It's just sunrise and sunset now.
