Dragonfly; for I follow

Your colors glisten, promoting your beauty

Your wings; prosperous and gentle, alike

I want to catch, capture, hold onto; forever

I seek you day and night, always by your side

Heart stills with your absence

I long for you; forevermore

Lie atop my palm and tickle its flow

Want to watch you grow; transform

Rest your weary eyes little one

I absorb your fear with intent

Intent to make you free from evil

I want to take you away; elsewhere

On an infinite journey; everlasting

Let's slip through this unconscious reality

Live free, co-exist with our whispering words

Words of love, truth, wisdom and desire

As we form one; only one of its kind

Irreplaceable, inimitable, we shall hover

Looking down upon a creation gone astray

Never off course or disoriented, remaining vigilant

Continuously evolving through time's freeze

Like a blistering pick liquefying ice

Come with me dragonfly; renounce your past.
