Chrysalis's Lament

Chrysalis Laments her Fate to Pass the Time as she Wanders the Everfree Forest

I live in carapace.

Never stay in one place.

-

Don’t even need a home.

I feed in lands I roam.

-

Betrayed by my own kind.

I’m hungry; I’m famished.

-

Return means punishment.

Useless bits. Need passion.

-

Feed upon emotion.

I once was stronger than

-

Pony god. Now I am

So easy to defeat.

-

Plans ruined by a tree.

And from trees, made copies

-

Of my six enemies.

Bad plan, now I see.

-

Duplicates disobey.

They attack Harmony

-

And planned for a coup.

Tree kills them, I would too.

-

Green aura of magic

Conjoined with tactics

-

Think it should be plenty

Enough to deceive

-

Ponies to give me love.

Never full nor enough.

-

Yes, I am Chrysalis.

Don’t really deserve this.

-

I tried to feed my hive.

We need love to survive.

-

Betrayed by my own kind.

My people live a lie.
