She Sits Alone

She sits alone
On a rock on the shore
Where days before
She sat with one more

Her boyfriend her love
On holiday
When fate befell
On this tragic day

Swimming and enjoying
The times of their lives
Two dived in
Only one survived

She still sits alone
On this rock on the shore
She will do it next year
Like the year before
