The Island Within

Gazing through the words that were never meant to be
Catching the unguarded pose of the one from a distance
He sits with coffee in hand
Dark glasses hide the other side
The truth of the unknown stays hidden
And the light of the new day rises

There was a time when two hearts met
And the unspoken language flourished
Shadows of the past may well cloud the present

Danger of being loved lurks at the corner
But passes with the changing of the light
Who can know of such things?
Could it be me? Could it be you?
Time will tell

Lost souls fill the streets of the faceless city
As a new dawn of nothing creeps above the skyline
Wasteland of the heart becomes the real sin
Another page is turned, Another day begins
And he remains the Island Within.
