The Island

Everyday I search this deserted island
in hopes that I find another person
to share this lonely existence with,
but all I end up with is the same endless solitude.

Sometimes I have visions in my sleep
of the one who will find me
and free me from my isolation,
and it's these visions that help me carry on.

Though I dream of the day I find the one,
this dream is but a castle in the sand
being slowly worn away by the rising tides,
yet I continue to build upon its feeble foundation.
