Searching for love again on a deserted island

Oh! Deserted Island

What is the source of your survival?

Where do you draw your water from to water your only inhabitants?

Where do you draw your nutrients from to nourish your inhabitants?

Where do you draw your strength from to care for your inhabitants?

What is the source of your love to love your only inhabitants?

For they look well loved, healthy and happy

So are you

Your beauty attracts seafarers on their fateful voyage

You seemed to be the only land out in the wide ocean

To swim to when storms strike their ship

But are your shores safe for landing?

Can your inhabitants accept and welcome the intruders?

Can they adjust themselves to accommodate the intruders?

Or, are your roots strong enough to take on the extra weight of the seafarers?

Oh! Deserted Island

How can you be so strong and independent alone out in the wide ocean?

Where there is no company for you

Where there is no one to share your weight

Where there is no one to care for you

Where there is no one to lean on

Where there is no one to love you

And yet be happy and prosperous

How long can you be alone for?

Oh! Deserted Island

Surely you need a seafarer

To give you company
