This island,
hardly alone on this island but
still too far from you.
The lights have gone black and I fear the worst
I try not to blame myself but I fear.
I can see the mainland just across the river
But the currents’ to strong and
I have not the will to make it.
I look to the bridges once between our two lands and wish...
I had not eroded them.
I stand hardly alone but what does that matter if I’m not standing with you
