"If you can take it
You can make it"

-Louis Zamperini
Zamperini was a prisoner of war in Japan during World War II. Throughout his time in the camps he faced many hardships that no one can even begin to imagine. Japanese war camps were just as bad as **** ones. But he made it through and lived to be 97 years old. I found this very encouraging. Keep fighting, and stay strong.

Every morning when I wake up
Two sieves catch my eyes
With their blinking tiny eyes.

The metal one bears
Seven stars on its bottom
Where seven dreams are sitting.

The other one is made of fine-meshed plastic  
Bearing a lone hexagonal star
Where I lump my questions

Of whys:
why we dream
and why we aspire.

oh
love
we
sit
at
the
table to share
our souls
and
Where
we
take our portion

I realise
I know
Less
Every day

But
Know

I could spend an eternity
alone on this island
with only a string and hook
and still catch feelings
instead of fishes

I must create a new life
