This is the gold
That had been fought over
By so many.
This is the leather jacket
A nerd wore so proud
To stay warm and stay cool.
This is before the dirt
Covered his best friend.
This is before the ground
Took his oldest comrade.
Wow, Chris. I didn't know you had experienced such a loss. I'm sorry. The way you worded that is beautiful and haunting.
