If I only had time to grab one physical object and save it from destruction,<\/p>\n
It would be you;<\/p>\n
Old friend;<\/p>\n
Your keyboard is worn to invisibility;<\/p>\n
It takes you longer to start up than \u00a0it does for my coffee to boil;<\/p>\n
Your electronic seizures have become more and more frequent;<\/p>\n
And your battery barely holds a charge;<\/p>\n
Somewhere in your electric brain, do you think;<\/p>\n
“Would she leave me behind?”<\/p>\n
Give me more credit than that!<\/p>\n
Without you, I could not have written a word for the last five years;<\/p>\n
The highs and the lows, the victories and the defeats, the wins and the losses;<\/p>\n
Have all been played out on your keys and on your screen;<\/p>\n
Since you stuck with me, old friend, I’m sticking with you;<\/p>\n
No matter what disasters may come.<\/p>\n
