After the party, I woke up on a tropical island

After the party, I woke up on a tropical island
The journey here, a mystery, a feeling so grand
Surrounded by beauty, in a place so serene
I can't help but wonder, how did I end up in this scene?

The experience is surreal, like a dream come true
The sun on my skin, the ocean so blue
I feel alive, free from the worries of life
In this paradise, free from all strife

I ponder my choices, my desires and plans
Do I stay on this island, or return to my lands?
The pull of the island, the peace that it brings
Makes me tempted to stay, spread my wings

But reality calls, responsibilities wait
I must return, leave this tropical fate
But the memories I'll cherish, the moments held dear
This island adventure, a memory to revere

So I bid farewell to the island, its beauty so grand
Carrying with me the experience, like grains of sand
I'll always have a piece of this paradise in my heart
A reminder of the escape, of the tropical start.
