You Built a Winner To Ghost
Time makes the hearts intertwined to grow fonder
So when they finally reunite - it lasts longer
And when they sense each other's souls it resonates stronger
Wherever they may be they'll find each other - even over yonder
Years had gone by without even a whole page of words
Open like the oceans, free-spirited like the birds
I always would find a place somewhere upon his page
To tell & rant & laugh about the todays
I would always type, & receive a response quickly back
He'd always keep me on the right track
He'd always take my hand to grow with him
But it ended far quicker than it ever really did begin
Maybe it wasn't the right time
Maybe not the right day
But I could always rely on him
When I needed to cry on his page
The pair of ears so far away
For years made it clear they'd stay
'Til one day I woke up, & they took you from me on Thanksgiving Day
Still the pockets of hope left within my skin
Left me by myself, wondering how I'd defend
Alone drifting in a world you made - that I joined
Remained the happiness that once you coined
You name me Holly for my random resilience
To highlight on those hidden pockets of brilliance that you made easy to emerge from my shell
And to give you the material & content you'd then sell
You're the one who convinced me not to hide
You're the one who told me to fly & not glide
You did everything just & everything right
But when it came to the worst of our worst - you didn't wanna fight...
