Survival's Will

On an Island...

My imagination, stretching itself infinately inwards.

What is Life without Life?

As I think to myself what I couldn't live without, I stay still.

Instead of atoms, I am made of moments.

Every moment has a physical representation.

Objects, documents, other beings.

I could take all with me.

Rebuild.

But.

Cannot.

Although impossible is possible, desicions need to be made.

Instead of what I love.

I choose to fight.

The will to survive.

I wrap myself in my insecurities.

I bite the bullet.

See There is so much I wish I could take with me.

But.

My will to get back to what I love will accompany me.

I cannot live without my Family.

I cannot live without the fire to be with them again.

I'll either get to my family, or die in the process.

What is Death without Life?

Could only one thing make you happy? 

Fight...Continue...Always...
