"Lost At Sea"

Lost At Sea

I am tossed mercilessly up and below.
By the seas waves and its current flow.
I lost my boat at sea when it capsized.
From taking on water it compromised.


I am lost in this deep wide sea of blue.
Waiting and hoping to soon be rescued.
I radioed position as my boat went down.
That is no guarantee I will soon be found.


I am floating adrift on this unfriendly sea.
hungry and thirsty my life jacket is on me.
I hope to be rescued before I'm torn apart.
Another death at sea the victim of shark.


There in distant water this object I see.
Maybe it's a rescue boat coming for me.
My mind was hallucinating it's now gone.
Quickly appeared but my eyes are wrong.


I am weaker my thirst needs quenched.
I fall to sleep knowing my fate is cinched.
If I can hold out I may be rescued soon.
All I can do is pray God erases my doom.
