Relearning

Well, it's me again~! I had to get some stuff out, so here I am. Don't worry about the sudden pronoun shifts for the Great Wolf, that'll happen when you decide you're gender fluid~ As always, I'd love any feedback, my friends


'Still the fear I

Can't contain'

The Wolf blinked

Themselves

Back.

After so long, she was

Back.

After so long, he could

Feel again.

It was hard, coming

Back,

To this.

Everything pierced her

Even more than before,

Good or bad.

They raised their

Head from their

Contemplation,

Wondering what was left.

He had come so

Close

To Burning it all,

Leaving

Nothing,

Wanting

Nothing.

Her Closest had

Left,

Leaving her alone

With the

Whispers,

hurtful little

Nothings.

He shakes his head,

A small

Smile

on his lips.

Even still,

They couldn't blame

Them.

Circumstances

Can spoil the best of

Us,

He blinks in

Confusion,

Seeing them here,

Still.

They hadn't really gone

Anywhere.

They were closer,

Even, than

Before.

A Pony friend

Had even come

Back,

In spite of it

All.

She watches them

Blinking back

Tears.

"Why?

Why are you all still

Here?"

They wonder

Aloud,

Knowing that it did not

Matter.

He lets the tears

Go,

Knowing that it did not

Matter.

He had so many

Confusing

Feelings for,

And about,

All of them.

But it did not

Matter.

It would sort itself

Out given

Time.

The Laughing Dragon,

Sometimes too

Proud

The Honest Pony,

Sometimes too

Mysterious.

The Great Serpent,

Sometimes too hard on

Themselves.

She would be here for

Them,

With

Them.

Because that is all that

Matters.

The Great Wolf

Stands,

And shakes themselves off

Again.

This was not the first

Time,

Nor would it be the

Last.

But it did not

Matter.

She would stay and

Walk,

With them.

He would stay with

Them,

No matter what.

Because...

'My heart still longs for a hope'
