An island in the sea Is where I longed to be Blissfully safe and sound Without a single soul around
But what I discovered Was that venturing from that place Was the key I needed to uncover So I had to begin at a new pace
An island in the sea Is no longer for me I assembled a vessel and sailed away On the waves that I once had to wrestle And so now I can certainly say Onward to a much better day
As a child, I always thought it’d be great to live on a small uncharted island in the middle of nowhere. I guess it's because i’ve always been an introvert and the thought of it seemed safe. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that I enjoy other’s company quite a lot. I don’t want to be isolated. I crave connection. And sure, I’m definitely still an introvert and need lots of time alone, but I’m glad that I no longer care to live on my island.
