The Island
March 23, 2011
I am nothing but an island
Shrouded by mist
Waves crash against my rocky shore
But they always retreat
Eventually
I am nothing but an island
Shrouded by myths
And legends
So no one dares come near
I am nothing but an island
And my fate will be that of an island
Eventually worn away
By the waves that crash into my rocky shore
Eroded away
Little by little
I was once an island
Always yearning to be a peninsula
I am still an island
I am nothing but an island
