Deep Dive

Diving deep for buried treasure in my mind.
Sparking gems of thoughts and ideas.
An ocean of emotion to learn and grow.
Won't let anyone pirate my extraordinary abilities or confidence of self.
For I am an explorer, wading through brain waves.
And the prized jewel has been found--
It was me all along.
