I'm Afraid My Dragonfly Will Fade Away ...































Sitting here all alone ... no one's up but, me
I hear the cold wind blow ... wind chimes ring



Snowflakes flying around ... kissing the earth
While I sit here ... feeling happy, sad



I have everything to be thankful ... grateful for
So ... why do I feel sad ... about some little thing



Some little thing that was a big thing to me
In memory of someone that was my world



I wonder if I am a small ... petty person
Just don't know it ... thinking I'm good



Am I just an ugly person ... for wishing
Things to be right ... upset easily, if not



Thinking about this ... I'm sitting here all alone
Listening to the cold wind blow ... feeling sad



Wind chimes rings ... thoughts flow in my mind
They are on one little dragonfly that means the world



Every day I look at this little dragonfly
My hand touches it gently ... like a mother touches a child



Saying 'I love you, Son' ... this is in memory of you
I'm afraid my dragonfly ... will fade away

  1. Your dragonfly will never fade away. It must be the winter because I too have had quite a few mornings lately where otherwise everything is alright but I have an incredible urge to cry.
