"I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries"
Peace to you.

I am love, peace and happiness.
A rock is standing still and has been known to stand the test of time.
An Island stands in tears.
Rocks erode over time and No man is an island unto himself.
Feeling pain allows us to be human and in being a human we are designed with tear ducts to eliminate certain waste and cleanse.
and May Peace bring You safely into Love.

A winters day
in a deep and dark December
I am alone
gazing from my window
to the streets below
on a fresly fallen silent shred of snow
I am a rock, i am an island
Great song by Simon & Garfunkel among many
I'm more like a bridge over troubled water

Yes I am. That is why I sit here alone and isolated and not having a life, on YA.
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 island.
Dont talk of love,
But I've heard the words 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'm not either one.
I feel pain and I do cry.
Their words cannot hurt you but sometimes they cut so deep. I try to be a rock and hide the pain but .... I am not a rock.
I wish I were a rock and an island!
