Pegasus

Take Me To The Stars

Pegasus

She left me lying in the dust
Because I broke the trust
That was steadfast between us
I found myself in the outskirts of the normal world
Because of one small lie

The lie I told her seemed white, forgivable

I would discover it was sacrilege
'Never lie to a princess, fool'

I told myself in a tyrade
Though the lie was miniscule
A tragic mistake was made

How do I redeem myself? How do I turn back time?
I simply fall at her feet and plead

Beg for forgiveness and her love back

Tell her that she is all I need

I look to the heavens and could see

That wondrous flying steed

Pegasus, I call out

Take me to the stars

Away from this No Man's Land

Help me search for my place in this world
So I can win back her hand

Win I must, I shall prevail

With you as my faithful steed

If I should lose, forever fail

Then it is only you that I need

....to ride on to recovery

I loved the flow to this. I also loved how you took this to another level and swept the reader up into the night sky with Pegasus. Beautiful

Thank you, Gwen. Of course it's an inspiration from the movie Clash of the Titans. I always found Pegasus to be a fascinating creature. So, I used that special horse as a metaphor to take me away from my pain. To just fly away from it all. Thank you for your feedback. ♥️

I love that film :) when she is put in that tiny bird like cage. Back then the effects weren’t as shiny as they are now. But somehow that film still holds its own. Always nice to be inspired :)
