Alone on an island
Alone in my mind
Why can't they hear me?
Why are they blind?
I speak silent words to long deafened ears
I hold back emotion with unshed tears
I sit and I ponder of where this must be
Am I a mirage?
Is this really me?
"Who are you"?, they asked
I couldn't reply
I had not an answer
Idid not know why
I've searched and I've searched in the depths of my head
Am I a survivor or one of the dead
"A whole world is waiting", they simply replied
"It's yours for the taking if you can decide"
That's when I knew somewhere deep in my heart
There is never an ending, unless there is a start
So, I have discovered alone in my thoughts
"You" never find "You" unless you have sought
The reason for being
The reason you're here
You can be the huge ocean, or just one tiny tear
