At long last
Marooned having chosen
Not to climb
Aboard the makeshift
Raft of rescue
Instead bidding farewell
To those desperate
Souls chasing the
Dreams of familiarity
I remain here
On the island
Choosing me over
The comforts of
Others knowing that
My aloneness will
Generate personal discovery
And letting those
Seek companionship as
A means of
Avoiding their loneliness
