Many of us have felt "shipwrecked" in life. This poem recognizes this reality.

Lost upon the waves, Ship splinters 'neath storm's fury, Sky merges with sea. Island sands embrace my plight— Hope blooms in the heart of night.

You've so succinctly described that universal feeling we all have at some point or another in our lives--shipwrecked and seemingly lost at sea. Well done, sir! have a pleasant evening, Sara
