i had a way then, losing it all on my own
i had a heart then, but the queen has been overthrown
i'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat
and i'm not keeping now, the strength i need to push me

Pierce had no idea what he was saying with his mumble-jumbo crap and that added onto the list of things he did to piss her off. She couldn't understand it and he sounded like a foal who just couldn't speak right. Just by simply talking so much, the mare got irritated again. Why should she be the one to start this all off? Why was she even telling him this? Dark eyes narrowed and she needed to get this out. She watched as the stallion adjusted his forelock and while he did that she pawed the damp earth, revealing dark soggy soil.

Finally he made sense but she hardly bothered to listen intently. Blah blah blah no family here.. The bay reached out to bite at him but his question halted her. What did she want in life? Well, nothing really. She lived day by day just doing what she wanted. Except now, now she could reveal her weakness but what good would that do her? Breeding season wasn't for awhile. Plus why in hell would Nikola do that? Pierce felt all wet and soppy inside now. She hated these emotions and tried her best to avoid them. Just one of the reasons she was so harsh. The mare focused her eyes on his.

"Nothing."
