Survive
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.
