By Myself

After my boat capsized out in the ocean, had a lucky rubber raft, which I stayed afloat on, where it seemed like days, I was lost at sea, with nothing but the vast sky, and the endless waves and sea, had my emergency waterproof igloo to help me get through, but just in case, had to ration my water and food, my skin turned red with the sun beating down, Gods tears from the sky helping soothe my sunburn, my friends were the whales, dolphins and sharks, the sharks I could tell were hungry, as they circled my raft, then some dolphins came to my rescue at last, thought I spotted some land yonder way, or it could have been my imagination running away, noticed some birds flying overhead, which was usually a sign of some kind of land mass, got closer to the tiny island, which was a sight for my sore eyes, but no matter how far I paddled, still seemed a million miles, then I finally made it to shore, which really made my day, being that I was sunburned, tired, hungry, achey and sore, it was a beautiful tiny island, with coconut trees, yelled out, "can anyone hear, can anyone help me?," walked around a bit to get the feel of the island didn't see any footprints in the sand, so I was the only person, then I set up a tent to have some shelter, just in case of inclement weather, knew I had to survive, so ate nothing but fish and coconuts, all the while, felt like I was dying of loneliness, having conversations with just me, myself and I, was making me feel insane, making me feel empty inside, there were days I'd just sit there crying and praying, for someone to come along someone to save me, finally giving up hope, I took a coconut, and sketched a picture of any person, a person I made sure, was a very good listener, so there I lived out my last days, talking to a face on a coconut, like some Eleanor Rigby castaway, or someone gone mad in solitary confinement.
