Destinies Entwined
Pink & Blue
by Technomare
Pink and blue
A whole different hue
Together they had started.
For what one had to steal
Did the other conceal
Two colts, the fates had parted.
Obscured by the night
And driven by fright
One colt did aimlessly wander.
The source of his strife
Throughout all his life
He was left to eternally ponder.
And his brother in day
Would his gaze go astray
A reprimand - harsh - would follow.
His expression was sure
And his manner demure
While internally he was hollow.
Twists and Turns
The cold wind burns
Speaking words of kindness untrue.
He alights in the dark
And makes such remarks
With his coat, clad in flowery blue.
The parallel path
Bears identical wrath
A sea of despair is the drink.
He revels in light
Of his unending blight
Repaired, with a pristine pink.
When dusk meets the dawn
And the masks are undrawn
Were never two ponies so true.
Two mares once divided
Now their fates coincided
These ponies are pink and blue
Only by joy and sorrow does a pony know anything about themselves and their destiny.
~Johann Wolfgang von Hoefthe

Loved it! A sequal/continuation would be awesome.
Awesome, I'm really glad you liked it. You can check my blog for more info
I liked this story. Managed to tell quite a bit in a very short amount of space. I now wonder what I will do if my sibling turns out to be a sister.
A little short, but definitely got it's point across. I look forward if you have any stories or sequels with same themes in the future.
Thanks Froey and Cyborg.
I have been pretty inactive lately, but I plan to change that -- perhaps with a sequel
This story has the shortest chapters I have ever seen. Well I guess I shouldn't let that stop me.
A pleasant read, but it felt way to short for the ammount of time it spanned. Would have felt more natural if it happened over a week rather than half a year.
