A winter's day
In a deep
and dark December
I am alo...ne
Gazing from my window
to the streets below
on a freshly fallen
silent shroud of snow
I am a rock
I am an is......land
I've built walls
A fortress
deep and mighty
That none
may penetrate
I have no need
of friendship
Friendship causes pain
it's laughter
and it's loving
I disdain
I am a rock
I am an is......land
Don't talk of love
Well I've heard
the word before
It's sleeping
in my memory
I won't disturb
the slumber
of feelings that have died
if I never loved I never
would have cried
I am a rock
I am an is.......land
I have my books
And my
poetry to content me
I am shielded
in my armour
Hiding in my room
safe within my womb
I touch no-one
and no-one touches me
I am a rock
I am an is........land
And a rock
feels no pain
And an island
never cries
