I am an island

Islands

I am an island
Secluded by the sea
I don't need another island
I'm alone, and I am free

Watch out for my volcano
Always ready to burst
My salty tears of fire
Are quick to be dispersed

Waves from this society
Pound upon my shore
Telling me to let them in
Impossible to ignore

I create my own utopia
Inside my rocky core
Escaping my reality
Upon my sandy shores

I am an island
Secluded by the sea
I don't need another island
I'm alone, and I am free

It's not great, but whatever

    I thought this was a very creative idea for describing the concept of independence. There was a meaningful analagy between the island and the human spirit. I also liked your style of writing and use of language to create an appealing sense of imagery and a pleasing poetic flow.
