Pegasus

 

Oh pegasus, pegasus, where can you be? 
 Why did you fly away from me?  
With coal black eyes, that shine so bright, 
And feathered wings for graceful flight..
Up in the sky, so clear and blue,
I've always had a love for you..
In childhood dreams you always came,
You soothed my soul with your silken mane,
Your wings so soft beneath my hands,
We'd fly away to distant lands.
Among the clouds we both would soar,
I thought you were mine forevermore..
But the day came when you took to flight,
I'd search in my dreams for you each night.
But I could never find my friend,
My childhood dreams came to an end...
The mythical creatures that once flew free,
Finally flew away from me.
Oh pegasus, pegasus, where can you be?
Why did you fly away from me?
