Ty
I'm all alone in this world now since you left it.
I'll be strong though for your sake.
I'll continue on so your actions won't be in vain.
They drove you out of here with pitch forks and fire blown by the dragon's breath.
That fort in the forest is for me alone now.
Our secret hiding place to block out the world's indecent incidents.
As I sit alone in the shack, the wind cries out your name.
Are you there Ty?
Crunch, snap, each step I take along the way,
It's your name I hear in the earth's movement.
Ty.
Don't leave me.
Your spirit faded into the oxygen I breath in and the CO2 I breath out.
Ty.
I see your face as it was the day you left, minus the tears.
It's in the fog that leaves my lips to form your figure in the cold winter air.
Ty.
My best friend, you'll always be with me.
