I wonder
I wonder where she is now
That girl I was in high school with
I wonder though I don't need to know
I still care of course, always, my heart's not made of batholith

All these years and I've blamed me
But it's not just me, it's us, we
We are the reason but I never gave up
See I forgave every mistake
While you poured another julep
I became forsaken

I have no regrets, I was always loyal
But it still makes me sad reading old posts
While I read how grateful you were on good terms, now toil being civil
Don't mistake this as a boast, simply hanging with my past ghosts

Haunted
From being truly devoted,
To being the one you always depended on
Thrown away but you're still loved

Each sibling I take on, is always unconditional
I refuse to give up, but I won't stop you if you do
Maybe I'm just overly emotional

But that emotion I always fail to hide
Is my strength in disguise
I may be struggling now but one day I'll rise
I will give that love to someone who stays
Helps me through this maze
Clears up my daze

For now, it's God I will praise
None like Him, he's there, Always.
