"Hey Poppy." Creek said popping out of the tree.

"No I will not date you Creek." Poppy said.

"You said that last week too, why not?" Creek said.

"My heart belongs to someone else besides you had your chance." Poppy said.

"Why do like Branch? He's always mean and depressed." Creek said.

"Yeah but he showed me love when you didn't." Poppy said.

Poppy started to sing about what she meant and Creek was standing there silently. Poppy loved Creek five years ago until he just packed up and left without no explanation, but once he returned he treated her like trash. Branch was different, he showered her with love the love that she couldn't find.

And all I remember is your back

Walking towards the airport, leaving us all in your past

I traveled fifteen hundred miles to see you

Begged you to want me, but you didn't want to

But piece by piece he collected me

Up off the ground where you abandoned things,

Piece by piece he filled the holes

That you burned in me at six years old

And you know,

He never walks away

He never asks for money,

He takes care of me

He loves me

Piece by piece he restored my faith

That a man can be kind and a father could... stay

And all of your words fall flat

I made something of myself and now you wanna come back

But your love it isn't free, it has to be earned

Back then I didn't have anything you needed so I was worthless

But piece by piece he collected me

Up off the ground, where you abandoned things,

Piece by piece he filled the holes

That you burned in me at six years old

And you know,

He never walks away

He never asks for money,

He takes care of me

'Cause he loves me

Piece by piece he restored my faith

That a man can be kind and a father could stay

Piece by piece

Then Branch peeked around the corner and began singing. It surprised Poppy and Creek but Branch was right...

Piece by piece I fell far from the tree

I will never leave her like you left us

And she will never have to wonder her worth

Because unlike you I'm going to put her first

And you know,

I'll never walk away,

I'll never break her heart

I'll take care of things,

I'll love her

And piece by piece i'll restore her faith

That a man can be kind and a father should be great

He loved her.
