Deserted
Stranded upon a hellish terrain
Dabbling in loneliness and disdain
A silent killer moves in for a strike
What will accompany me in this empty life?
Will it be dehydration or the unwillingness to survive?
To keep sane on a deserted ground
I ponder a lesson that overcomes all bounds
Keeping close only an honorable code
Taught by my great grandfather, whispered in the walls of his abode
Valuable wisdoms only experienced by wiser folks
When times are rough, and life pulls you asunder
Drown out the doubt with an encompassing thunder
Courage is the only possession a person needs to succeed
It bursts forward when you first start to bleed
An Empowering and inspiring feeling
So while trapped on an island that’s deserted and bare
I would pull from my heart with the upmost care
To be courageous, and climb the highest peak
To soar and bound and survive above the weak
That is the one thing I cannot live without
