Stranded Sailor

Stranded Sailor

by KhuzaimaAli

We sailed through,
An ocean, unending.
Paddling on each side of our boat.

You leave
Balance off
Vessel capsized.
And with it, me.

I gasp and grope
With little hope

Water everywhere the eyes go
Yet I feel if I drank
Until the last drop
I'd be emptier still
