Ready or not

We built whole cities out of light
Pixel walls in dead of night
Didn't move, no boarding flight
Still crossed every line in sight
Different cities, same blue glow
3 a.m., we didn't know
How far far could really go
When your breathing matched my flow
Theme songs leaking through the wire
Static hearts and small desire
Split-screen kids in separate frames
Different lives
Connected names

Strange for the time
Too close, too kind
Too real to fake
Too far to define

What if
It wasn't just blue light?
What if
It kept us up all night?
Not wrong
Not right
Just saved in the night
No touch
No proof
Still felt like truth
Not a mistake
Not something fake
Just something we saved
We were too scared to break

Summer storms in all caps
Typing truths we can't take back
Left unsent, pride too loud
Thunder hiding in a cloud
You signed in when I signed out
Silence screaming twice as loud
It's just a game, we'd both explain
But it pulsed beneath the name
Only numbers
Only a tag
Only silence
After the lag
Still something shifted
Still something changed
Didn't lose you
Just rearranged

Different houses
Different rings
Different futures
Different things
Different roads
Different aim
Didn't crash
Just quit the game

What if
It wasn't just theory?
How do you rewind
Something half-seen, half-clearly?
Maybe magic stays gold
'Cause we never pressed start
Maybe stories stay whole
When they stay in the dark
No spark
No flame
Still felt the same

You saw every draft of mine
Before I knew the final design
Every update
Every flaw
Every quiet mental war
I wouldn't trade the life I chose
I know you wouldn't
Heaven knows
Some connections don't compete
Don't delete
Don't retreat
They just breathe
Underneath

What if
It was never the plan?
Just proof
Two kids once built
Something no one understands
Not love
Not quite
Just saved
At the right time

Somewhere in an old save file
Under dust and data piles
You still owe me a diamond
