Dear Mom,

In a place where there’s nothing but water and land,

and only the trees and animals share this island so grand,

I have this sense of calmness and I completely understand,

that I’ll never feel more content then when lying next to you in the sand.

I have holes in my clothes and technology is out of reach,

but all those things mean nothing because you’re the only thing I need.

When faced with the world that tries to bring me to my feet,

I overcome all fears because you’re there with me.

So what will a book, a phone, or game do,

when the person you love the most is missing next to you?

And when the days are long and I feel like I won’t get through,

I’m okay in this world if it’s forever just me and you.
