Last I knew twas most promising
Until I turned my back from view
Some count time like diamonds
Time lapsed like a candle flame
Extinguishing in every second
Now, cawing of a nearby crows
Expecting to devouring my soul
Before I woke their humiliation
As breath of life resumes again
In and out my own shallow- gasps
Purge outwardly from a salty man
A wet sandy bed lays beneath me
Like carrion left to the mercy
Of a bitter and thrashing wave
Murder thought hope to claim
I was tossed aside loves boat
And left to drown in the dark
Nowhere was a shore in sight
Just I- reaching for a moon beam
As if it were some sorta life line
At least before reality vacated
And some passing star saved me
Miraculously dredging me from a sea
Reality now finds me…loves castaway
