North
I want to head north
to see a writer.
The one I know that's strong
The patient one. The fighter.
The one I know
but wish I knew more
the one I just saw
but miss more now than ever before
The writer who's beautiful to me
inside and out
who follows his own path
who picks a different route
This writer who loves
people for who they are
who embraces the unique
and loves races near and far
This writer who shows me
how to be stong
for myself and everyone else,
and that it's okay sing my own song
This writer who cares
about all kinds of art
this writer who is passionate
and has a huge heart
So thank you writer
For being who you are
I will come back north soon
I will follow the star.
