Maps drawn with lines and X’s
Marking the spots of interest,
Treasure.
I’ve drawn a map on my body
with lines of scars, scabs, and blood.
The spots of interest being my
Mind, Heart, and Soul
all parts of my body,
marked with an X each.
Which one holds the treasure,
the desire to live?
The search continues,
following the lines
and braving the sea.
Taking over ports and other ships
just to find the happiness
I might hold inside.
