Never Gone
By: Siena
Age: 11

As he laid there in the grass, he took his last breath, he slowly closed his eyes, the horse she loved the most was slowly fading away, as she laid by him that night, she could see him in her dreams, he was running with the stallions and Mares in the sky, he was not in pain at all, but as he looked down on her, he could feel the pain again, the pain of leaving her forever, as she woke, she felt the same pain, it was a pain of never seeing him again, as she stood up, she looked to the sky, she knew he was happy, but she could not but a smile on her face, in the sky, the stallion looked down,
“I must be with her,” he told himself,  
“I want you here,” the girl whispered, she looked up and saw a horse in front of her, the horse leaped into the stallions body, he opened his eyes,
“I will never be gone,” he told the girl, “but you can only see me. You are my best friend,” added the stallion, the girl nodded as she swung on his back, the stallion leaped to the air, as they flew, the girl knew he was never going to be gone.
