Still Here

Musing through memories,
Losing my grip in the grey.
Numbing the senses,
I feel you slipping away.
Fighting to hold on,
Clinging to just one more day
Love turns to ashes,
With all that I wish could say..

I'd die to be where you are.
I tried to be where you are.

Every night, I dream you're still here.
The ghost by my side, so perfectly clear.
When I awake, you'll disappear,
Back to the shadows
With all I hold dear..
With all I hold dear..
I dream you're still here..

Hidden companion
Phantom be still in my heart
Make me a promise that
Time won't erase us
That we were not lost from the start.

I'd die to be where you are
I tried to be where you are

Every night, I dream you're still here,
Ever slightly out of reach.
I dream you're still here,
But it breaks so easily.
I try to protect you,
I can't let you fade.

I feel you slipping..
I feel you slipping away...

Not a vent, just found this song today and it fits so perfectly with Pearl... Had to draw her to it ;w;

After the thousand year curse was lifted, Opalescent Pearl had found herself alone in the king's chambers.  She took one of his spare cloaks to wear and began to look for him, but without the unicorn in sight, she simply retreated back to her shop and hid herself away, missing the entirety of King Sombra's attempt to reclaim his kingdom from the Mane 6, Spike, Shining Armor and Princess Cadance.  She did eventually hear of this after bringing herself out from her darkened home, only to fall back into a deeper depression knowing the king that had showered her with affection would never return.
