The Book with Seeds
A book I love,
a book I need,
for what to carry on a deserted island
than a book with seeds.
The drawings that grow
of the dangers I see,
my journal I keep them in
for someone one day to see.
Alone I am,
alone I feel,
if I'm not careful,
my life it will steal.
My weeps grow more
as my days here grow long.
How comforting it is when the sound of my pencil scrapes
create a song.
My drawings are feirce,
as shadey as the night,
the only thing I can do
is just draw and sit tight.
I know not if or when I'm to return home,
to only hope one day,
my life here is to warn the next person
who intends to stay.
