To Survive
Many say
They would not adventure
Without a friend.
They need them to survive.
Many say
They need an escape
A favorite place
A deity
An animal
A book
To keep them company
If they are
Alone
On a deserted island
Or at home.
I say
I need no other
Than myself.
In this world
It is too easy
To lose one’s self.
To lose your morals
Identity
Confidence
Experiences
Thoughts
Beliefs
Love
It cannot be replaced
You cannot be replaced
I cannot be replaced.
As long as I have myself
As long as I am myself
I will survive.
