Freddie the Stupendous (#148)

Owner: 0xFd90…887B

Freddie

Frost on the windows, seeping through the cracks of this old and mouldy barn.
Cold lonely nights, waiting for the shadows to finally take over my soul.
The cawing of crows, howls of wolves, echoing in the distant plains.
The creaking of a door opening, shy footsteps, and a careful stare.

Was this the light, the signal to finally give up this useless fight?
Icicles on your robes, carefully holding this magic globe.
Proudly wearing this purple hat, despite your hair tangled in mats.
You were scared, as was I.
You were famished, as was I.
Freezing, shivering, keen to find a place to lie.

I didn’t have to glare, didn’t have to let you know I too was in despair.
Curled up with care, resisting this hostile winter air.
Alas, I'm just a pony, the darkness teasing me, How enticing would it be.
O take me gloom, I can't see, is this doom or a blindfold.
In this dark room, You approached me.
Huddled, and told me: It won't take thee, this freezing cold.

Born in this dark room, soon to be my wooden tomb.
You gave me strength, you gave me will.
Won’t die on this hill, tis but a chill.

We’ve never left each other’s side.
From dawn to dusk, together we ride.
This coldness, I never miss.
I love life, life is bliss.
Years on the road, you made a promise.
The whole Runiverse, I would gaze upon.
On every village door, I would step on.

The Citadel’s marble paths.
The kobold’s muddy baths.
Dream Master’s glistening Lake.
O Every path, we will take.

We laughed, we cried.
We fought, with pride.
We marvelled with every stride.
Day and night, tide after tide.

One day, we got away.
The graze of a Fey, innocent, but will slay.
I gallop, neigh, miles ahead I finally lay.
We made it Master, we were almost prey.

I can feel it, I can feel your heartbeat.
What is it, why can’t you stand on your feet.
The light in your eyes, it slowly fleets.
The rot on your arm, quick, medicine, you must eat.

Which one do you need?
Master, I plead.
Which one will stop the bleed?

A vague souvenir.
An old memory, now clear.
You once felt like this, oh no my dear..
It won't take thee, this freezing cold.
It's not that time, we’re not that old.

Everything I would see, Master, you promised me.
I can’t be alone, Master, it frightens me.
Deep inside, you know, I’m still that pony.

I hold my breath, you hold my mane.
Take my hat, you say in vain.
I’ll be with you, through the arcane.
Finish the goal, conquer all plains.

You fade away, I hold my pain.
