Stranded by Choice

My Heart is on an island somewhere
off the coast of Southern California.
It missed the boat back to L.A. Harbor

My Conscience almost missed it too
but got there just in time. I just received
a text message from my Heart telling me

to not worry, that it's just going to enjoy
the island for a few more days,
it really wants to go on a hike and see

more of the nightlife there. I can't blame it.
I'd have stayed there longer if I could have.
