Cast Away

Cast away she remains, On the deserted island of sadness Looking around she wonders Where has everyone else gone that made her feel loved? Are they hiding amongst the driftwood memories? Or have they left her there to die alone... Tomorrow, she knows the sun will rise again, But for today she succumbs to the darkness of her mind once more The waves of silence drive her insane, As she longs for a whisper of anyones voice to break the silence She has pushed the world down under the sand, But now finds herself searching for comfort in even strangers Alone as the dawn of a new day arrives, Alone as the moon rises in the sky
