I Am In A Lifeboat

I am in a lifeboat lost at sea, I've used all the emergency supplies, done the sos call, and yet I am here still and realising that maybe there's nothing more to do

All that's left is to savour the essentials at hand and use them scarcely so they last in hopes that maybe I'll see something on the horizon that is new

Another boat, or land, or maybe a helicopter, to be honest, any lifeline at this point I would gladly take in hopes to find help, and maybe get some relief

All I know is the longer I paddle this boat and all I see is vast open-ended spaces with no help in sight my my heart starts to wander and my energy depletes

When do I stop paddling and just rest my weary mind and body, and how do I even do that when I am stranded, and freedom seems so out of my reach? 

I am unsure how to stop my body from worrying and being in distress, but I also wander if my mind is not stopping, is this its way of showing me that hope it still keeps 

I am in a lifeboat and stranded out in a sea that is large, and I seem so small that no one seems to find me and I am watching larger objects just pass me by

So please if you see me in my little lifeboat just purely trying to stay afloat, give me a hand or a throw me a lifeline, I am trying my best everyday to keep the fight
