Our minds are an island
that no one else may truly visit
hints are dropped, by what's said and written
but if we choose not to share
then no one else may know

We walk through life
With family and friends
And with lovers
But in the end
We are all alone

Confused and contused
Even thoughts can sometimes bruise
When you have self doubt
There is no way to be helped out
There is no penetrating the mind

Physical distraction
Friendly interaction
Help to pull us outside
To enjoy life's ride
But we are all alone

Broken thoughts or happy dreams
Can all effect our self esteem
But in the end
The choice to mend
Is ours all alone
While some of us are surrounded by family and friends, we are really isolated, stuck in our own minds.
