No man is an Island

The past is a shadow, so dark and alone
Like a grave it holds the fear and the bones
And buried within, the sins of our youth
Upon its headstone is written the truth


What good is love if not to forgive?
To understand why and therefore to live
A life of a one whose love is above all
A love that is able to withstand a fall


No man is an island that stands by itself
And hate has no place, lay it high on a shelf
Discover the truth you hold deep within
Then you are the one who is certain to win


For you are an angel God sent to this earth
From the moment you breathed on the day of your birth
Till the end of all days with my love by your side
Never wanting nor needing, nor having to hide


Be happy in all that you do every day
Be true to yourself in every way
Make friends with your soul it will carry you through
And light up your life on the days you feel blue


Remember the times let your eyes fill with joy
When the past and the present were there just like toys
Never forget that my life is the reason for you
The mistakes of the past are in all that we do


I carry my fears burnt deep into my heart
Forever to burden my soul from the start
My mind is eternal forever to cry
A shadow of pain till the day that I die


A wish for forgiveness is all that I bare
The power is yours that is if you should care
My life has no meaning so long as you’re sad
Just remember my darling that I am not bad
