Dreams of Ponyland

Some days, to long ago I drift,

to times of play and fun,

when naivete was a gift,

with laughter in the sun.

the Pegasi flew high above

with Ponies at my feet.

the Unicorns lived where I love

and free with every beat.

but then your fire scorched my soul.

your flames washed over me.

the flashing smile took its toll,

destroying fantasy.

in Masquerades, you took my hand,

made Lofty all my thoughts

with Medleys of Fireflies and

Surprises that are sought.

your Love Melody made me weak,

"Mirror Mirror," asked I,

"is this Angel the one I seek

and Truly worth the price?"

my coquette's heart was filled up tight

with Ribbons, Buttons, Bows,

the Unicorns of love so light

ignored the seeds you sowed.

every word you spoke enticed,

pushing my dreams away.

your Gusty vows of Paradise

begged me to always stay.

Pegasi in my head did dart

and whispered songs of old.

Unicorns pierced my beating heart,

but broke their horns of gold.

they wanted me to be with them,

to stay forever more,

your growing passion to condemn,

adulthood to ignore,

but your Majesty and Glory

kept me pulling in.

they knew the end of the story

and that they could not win.

slowly, surely, they faded away.

their places held, they withdrew.

Memories with you each day

replaced the love they knew.

Sometimes, now, I travel back,

visit where they dwell.

in Sunbeams, behind the facts,

to let their sorrows well.

they ask, "Megan, where have you been?"

Megan, where did you go?

will we finish what we begin

or will we never know?"

"have you forgotten us?

have you thrown us away?

will we sit here gathering dust?

will you come back and play?"

I try to explain my life's changes,

the feelings of my love,

to make them see my heart's ranges,

Which they will be part of.

They look to me with dark, dull eyes,

nothing understood.

I sadly return to my earthly ties,

and continue life as I would.
