COME FLY WITH ME

COME FLY WITH ME

For Sara Ella

They say you’re far too big, but I don’t fear.
They say your teeth are huge and  sharp and mean,
You’ll eat me like a snack,
I won’t be coming back,
This is the last time I’ll be seen.
But I feel safe, dear dragon, while you’re here.

I live in this unkind and awful place
Where people overlook me, I am small
I'm ailways pushed away
I never feel okay
I always hide against a wall
But I feel safe in my dragon's, embrace

Carry me to your green dragon land
Together we can travel far and wide
And I will carry you
When you are feeling blue
Together we will thrive and fight
For I feel safe, my dragon, take my hand

And let me climb your back, to high above
And let us fly and fly away from here
Bring me to fairy land
On your back I’ll stand
Because there’s nothing that I fear
For I feel safe, dear dragon, in your love.
