Stranded
May 1, 2015
You wake up
To the sudden bounce in the plane
You here the monstrous storm outside
You buckle up when
A wing snaps off like a crack of a whip
You hear the pilot blurting
Mayday mayday
Boom
The plane crashes into the ocean
You wake up,
Head is pounding like a drum
Sun beating down on you
Feeling the warm soft sand
Hear waves rolling
When you come to you think
Stranded
You scavenge the island
Searching
For survivors
Food
Water
Trying to survive
Days go by
You start to lose hope
Food is scarce
Arm looks delicious
Just a little nibble
One by one
Your fingers disappear
Bleeding out drop by drop
Now the rats come
And feast on you misery.
