sometimes
i wish i could be
afloat on the sea
on my own private floating island
hundreds of miles away from land
bobbing along calmly in no particular direction
I would refuse entry to everyone
except those lonely hearts and tired souls
the disconsolate
yes
they would be welcome
and I would make them cups of tea
with extra special love
shower them with unwavering affection
and offer them solace
for here there would be no lies
and no disguises
