A collection of poems based on a variety different topics from characters to events in the series. Most of the poetry is in free-verse. I will be adding to it as I go. I haven't written any poetry for about two years so good easy.

Loyalty

Loyalty

The one that stays true
Always stands by your side
Through the best of times
Through the worst of times
In the fight against the eternal night of Nightmare Moon
Straying from your Element at times, but always coming back to it in the end.
Through the chaos of Discord's return
A royal wedding gone wrong by a love hungry queen and her swarm
A blizzard storm led by a mad king through an empire of crystal ponies
Remember who your friends are.
Through everything they are your true friends until the end.

The Night

The Night

The Night
The dark of the night may frighten me, but I show no fear.
For I look up in the sky and see your moon shining bright lighting my way.
As I sleep you visit me
You and I sail on the sea of dreams
Adventure, romance, tragedy and comedy
There are nightmares where I want to hide.
You come to tell me
"Everything will be alright"
You give me hope
Shine like the brightest star in the sky
Your cyan blue eyes shimmer in the moonlight
The stars in your flowing sapphire mane glow bright
We laugh having fun in our dreamland
Luna, you mean so much to me
I admit my feelings for you
That you are the most beautiful mare in Equestria
You say feel the same way for me
As I wake after the sunrise, I believe it to have all been a dream
Only to look and see you sleeping by my side

Author's Notes:

I originally intending this to be a shipping between Luna and another canon character, but I then changed my mind. So I think I left it more open-minded for the most part.

In Chaos

In Chaos

Chaos reigns across the land
The harmony that ruled it has been disbanded.
The Elements?
They have all but disappeared
And their welders?
They are all still here.
Fluttershy has scared all the animals away.
Rarity and Tom are voted best couple in town.
Rainbow Dash sits on her cloud all day
AJ spends it lying all day
Pinkie Pie brings nothing but despair
Twilight does not really care about her former friends because there is no magic anymore.
Letters to Celestia burned
Chocolate rain
Fires burn and chaos rules
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
He is the spirit of chaos
Canterlot is no longer the center in Equestria.
Welcome to Ponyville, chaos capital of Discord's world

Open Your Eyes

Open Your Eyes (poem)

Today I've woken up to my friends with different identities
This leaves me thoroughly confused as to why this has happened.
Rarity is trying to make weather
Pinkie is working on the Apple farm
Rainbow is taking care of animals
Fluttershy is trying to ponies laugh
AJ is making dresses
This is all so very wrong
I need to find a way to open their eyes.
There must be a way to reverse the spell
To see the truth and open your eyes
I want to help you realize that our friendship means so much more.
Open your eyes to the truth
One by one, I will change you back
Remember your memories
Restoring Harmony
Once my true friends have returned
The key to finishing Star Swirl the Bearded’s spell is complete
And I’ve opened your eyes

Author's Notes:

I admit the inspiration of this poem especially the title was Aviators song, Open Your Eyes.

Desire

Desire

It is something longed for.
Something needed to keep going
Her heart is cold and dark

She wants to consume the world of its love
Love is what feeds her
Love also defeats her

Her eerie dark green eyes glow in the darkness
Her minions obey her every command
Desire is something that cannot be stopped
A hunger
A lust for revenge
The darkness that surrounds her is intoxicating
Controlling and manipulative
Corrupting the loves ones of ponies
She enjoys the suffering of others

Her twisted smile with her sharp fangs showing
Her glowing bright green magic
Her voice sending shivers up a pony's spine
She appears to be out of a nightmare
Like a parasite
She is the queen of the swarm

Love

Love

An alicorn of pink
The Princess of Love
She is gentle and kind
Spreading love wherever she goes
Its power knows no bounds
To make old love new once again
It defeated the Changelings from Canterlot
From the Crystal Empire to the small town of Ponyville
Cadance, the love song of Equestria
The heart
The beat
She is the rhythm
She is gracious in mind and with words
She is love.

Philomena

Philomena

Gold and red
Orange and yellow
This bird is a happy fellow
Brilliantly bright with color as she takes flight
Phoenix pet to the Princess of the Sun
Always ready to have fun
Rises from the ashes to begin again

Not So Different

Not So Different

We are not so different
You and I
Shy yellow mare
Kind and caring
Lover of nature
I don't want to be mean
Show me to be the real me
Be the way I am supposed to be
The person I used to be
Your sweet voice will show me the way
The real me

Love II (The Power of Love)

Love II (Power of Love)

A young colt and filly begin with a spark.
Time passes and the spark grows.
Friendship turns into love
Their hearts tied to each other
A wedding turned to tragedy
A threat to the city
A queen's sinister plan unfolds
The bride hidden away by her imposter
The groom under the love-feeding false bride's spell
Twilight sees through her deception
No pony believes the student
Even her mentor
The queen imprisons the purple unicorn below in the forgotten caves of long ago
A reunion of old friends
Above them all processes without delay
A royal wedding crashed by the bride and the best mare before the final cue
A villain revealed
A short duel ends with loss of the sun princess's crown
The shattering of the protection spell
The invasion of the swarm from above
The battle in the streets
Only to lead to more defeat
Six friends lay on the floor with no Elements to aid them
A weakened Shining Armor
All looks lost
Love will give them strength
Chrystalis believes the couple to be fools
Cadance puts her horn’s magic to his and spark appears
The spell gets stronger
To everypony’s amazement and the changeling queen’s horror
A blast of magic and shining light sends the villains away
Love conquers all
