Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle [x2]

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my [x3]
Message in a bottle [x2]

Walked out this morning
Don't believe what I saw
A hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
A hundred billion castaways
Looking for a home

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my [x3]
Message in a bottle [x2]

Sending out an SOS
a song by The Police. I can really relate to the meaning of the song.

I don't want to talk to you about this

I know you want to clarify things for me
but you are telling me what I figured out a long time ago

I know that you are trying to help
but you are only making things worse for me

so please, let me figure this out for myself

there are some days
where it's hard to look away


this is one of those days

the path I need to follow
is more like an open field

a directionless plain
with no end in sight

moving forward blindly
will only end in pain

so someone please
tell me where to go

as the glow of the shimmering rock goes dim
I am pulled further away from the exit
this won't make much sense without reading my last poem

I am wandering in a dark ave
lost, confused, and nowhere to go

but wait, is that a light?
a way out of the darc and the gloom?

I run towards the light as fast as I can
ignoring everything that passes by

as I get closer, I see that it is not a way out
it is only the faint shimer of a shining rock

now I am still stuck in the cave
more lost than ever
DG Jan 2013
even when you forgive me for everything
I keep asking myself
am I the bad guy?
