This week’s artist we’re featuring is writer, actress, and model, Maya Griffin. I came to know Maya the same way I’ve come to know so many lovely people this past year, through the making of Murder Creek. Maya plays Good Samaritan 2 in the film. More on that once the film has been released!
For now, please enjoy this lovely poem from Maya, called My Dear Pirate. Don’t forget to leave a comment for her when you’re finished!

My Dear Pirate
by Maya Griffin
My dear pirate I will wait
for thee,
I will gaze for your ship
across the sea.
Longingly I wait for you
on the sand,
And feel our love, where
I stand.
My dear pirate we were
meant to be,
We will find a way, for
you mean much to me.
And even if it weren’t
by design,
I would still recall your
eyes in mine.
My dear pirate I will wait
for thee,
I will dream for our love
that sets us free.
We express our love when
we can,
So we sail together, hand
in hand.
