Lonely island
Lost on an empty island
She cried hopelessly
Took hold of every straw
Thinking it would save her
Untill she realized even the logs won't
She woke up distressed and broken
Not knowing what's going to happen
Future looked bleak and black
But she was hopeful, yes she was
There were many who visited the island
Some even enjoyed her company a little
Living alone made her coy and introvert
But going back to people's land was always her dream
There could be monsters or demons in human clothing
Not knowing the facts she kept these visitors trusting
They told her to stay where she's living
It's beautiful here and much peaceful
Loneliness was killing her but she tried escaping
Alas! There wasn't much on the other side for her
So she succumbed to her God gifted fate
Lonely planet was her new home
Few visitors always
They admired her and the place
Suggested her how she could renovate
But none was of the opinion to take her away
Finally she accepted her divine fate
Made strategies to live by her ownself
Others opinion was not valued anymore
Cos every log and straw was used by her
To create her impenetrable luxurious fort
She saw the visitors from the tower window
Visitors came to the island
And were shocked to see the fort
Some admired but many disliked
Opinions showered upon her
But it wasn't what she anyway liked nor disliked
Years of loneliness gave her, self companionship
She was now her only best friend
Enjoying the nature she so loved well
The sun, moon, stars and the air
Birds became her best friends
She could converse with everything
Not lonely or alone anymore
She decorated her fort into a beautiful home
No more of the other side of the world
She requires to see or go to
Happy on her quiet lonely Island
She has many endeavours and chores
Plenty of time to spend on herself
Developing her ownself and her lonely planet
She finally made it to herself and her own home
This is where she belonged and she should be
And now there're no more plans to find another place
She welcomes visitors and entertains their views
But little they know, their baseless sympathies are stored
In a book of words she keeps their words as chapters
Trying to find meaning in words that has no efforts
Words are easy so people give them easily
Help and constructive support requires time, effort and money
It's precious, so the visitors never give her
She saves their words, hoping someday she can give back
These words of sympathy to the Lonely visitors 😂😂😂

It was but in the advices
The straw and logs
That let to the construction of fort
Now it's a wall of wisdom for all
Thank you Nigel🌷
