My Superhero, My Rock
the island is enorumous
the water is deep
i'm scared and alone
i can't move my feet
i look to the sky
it's dark and it's grey
i'm trembling and scared
but you're not far away
i close my green eyes
i sit on the ground
i imagine my home
i remember the sound
the sound i'd forgotten
of your warm, happy voice
i wish you were here
you don't have a choice
mom, you need to protect me
you always know best
i'm stuck on this island
i need lots of rest
who will help me find food?
or pick my clothes off the floor?
without you i'd be hungry,
life would be such a bore
who would wipe away the tears
when I sit down and cry?
who would walk me through struggles
without even a sigh?
i smile at the idea
that you're next to me
then i open my eyes,
and you're sitting with me
mom, thank you for caring
i know you love me
because without you on this island
where the hell would i be?
