If I Was On A Deserted Island


One thing I would take with me on a deserted island 

A question that seems almost vague until you really aggregate the whole meaning 

What would I really need to take with me on a deserted island-

A book, a journal, tools, a distant memory from my past?

Or music-

Wonderdul tunes of chords and sounds of different musical instruments to form a tune, a combined sound of unity with words that express your soul 

Music that gives you life when you feel so isolated from everyone and everthing.

Music that influences your mood and built up emotions inside of you waiting to come out and be set free

To the beat, the rhythm of the song that only you understand 

Like a steady river to a roaring sea

Like innocence of a child but is faced with the horrifying conclusion of how all life ends, but yet evolve.

It makes me wonder if music balances the earth and to make it harmonize together as if there is one song that the world is singing that only the people would listen long enough to hear it 

Or maybe I already lost my mind and what's left of my sanity is in the music

Any music...all music

Maybe being on a deserted island alone with music won't be that bad after all
