Sometimes when we are alone
I wonder about this world you and I,
My mind is full of questions
For answers then I look in your eye.

You see my tear-stained face
but turn away and look into the sea,
You tell me stories of your life
playing with the sand and ignoring me.

I don't want to be alone in this world
My heart aches for love and laughter,
You are my only hope and inspiration
I am tired and want to sleep in your shelter.

Sometimes I sit and wonder
about my life you and I,
For an answer then I look at HIM
He doesn't answer me but a tear falls from his eye.

Who is HIM?
Good structure. Want to read more.

September 30, 1659. I, poor, miserable Robinson Crusoe, being shipwrecked, during a dreadful storm in the offing, came ashore on this dismal unfortunate island, which I called "the Island of Despair," all the rest of the ship's company being drowned, and myself almost dead.

Great poem, Dipali. The last stanza I found especially intriguing. Maybe you have been answered and just haven't realized it yet.

Hi DB,
Appreciate that you took time to read it.
By HIM I mean God.
I look at God for an answer(meaning I look at the sky)but instead a tear drops from his eye(meaning it starts to rain) as he knows that i am destined to be alone like this forever.
