Survive

Thu, 01/28/2016 - 15:14 -- ArinH

Me, myself, and I

That's all I need to survive

I need to use what I know

So I can build a functional boat

I need to think of how to live

So I can survive all alone

I need the brainpower

The will

The wits

That I know are inside of me

To survive

There is no material possession

That I can limit myself to

If I am abandoned

By those I knew

Where I don't know where I am

I have no compass to guide me

I have the stars

And my knowledge of the land

I have my guts

And my intuition

I have all that I need

As soon as I can utilize everything

Even if I am alone

Stranded on an unmarked island

I know that I can

And will

Survive.
