dear diary
the world i now knew
has been replaced with a castle full of secrets
that have all been built around Youi sleep in the rooms many floors below yours
and You promised me one day
that i would have
a wonderful library tower
in the shadow
of towers that are Yours
when i am old enoughin that one is a telescope
to count all the stars
as if anypony has the timeyour friend
sunset shimmer
dear diary
i wish on those stars sometimes
just so that the Princess knows
i will be more than
Her faithful student
i want to be
somepony She never forgetsi hope She can't hear me
from all Her windows above mine
and not just because it would ruin my wish
to have it spoiled by the wind
or because She told me
not to open my window
when i am so high above
this sleeping citymy sleeping city
She doesn't know
that i want my own secrets
if only just sometimes
and i will keep them like lanterns
to light the dark
i sometimes feel
instead of the lighthouse beacon
they would be
if She ever knew how scary it was
to feel like a candle in Her light
and only Her huge shadow over me
as another reminder
She is a Goddess
an Other
to a pony like mei would hate for every lesson i could ever learn
to end before they even began
because a great Goddess brighter than stars
(and probably way older too)
thinks i might fall out a window
(again)your friend
sunset shimmer
p.s.
i do not think
i will feel this way
around Her
too much
longer
