📖Flash Fiction

"Island Rules"

I wake up on the beach. The island is here. It has been here. I have not.

The sand claims my footprints before I can admire them.

There is a tree. It has seen things. It does not share them.

The ocean pretends I do not exist. I shout at it. The wind takes my words and scatters them.

I build a shelter. The island disagrees. It collapses.

I find a coconut. I name it "Coconut." Now we are two.

Coconut is quiet. I ask it for advice. It considers, then remains silent.

The sun shifts. The island shifts. I do not.

I carve "HELP" into the sand. The tide erases it.

I carve it again. The tide erases it again.

The island has rules. I must learn them.

lyrics🎶

"Island Rules"

The sand doesn’t ask, it only takes,

Footsteps disappear before I make them.

The tree is watching, pretending not to,

The ocean hums a tune, one I don’t know.

I carve "HELP" into the shore,

The tide rewrites it, once, then twice.

The island has rules, silent and sure,

I learn them slowly, I don’t decide.

Coconut listens, never replies,

The sun shifts, maybe it, too, is unsure.

I shout at the sky, it doesn’t blink,

The wind carries my thoughts, somewhere else.

What if the island is speaking?

What if I just don’t understand?

Maybe it doesn’t care at all,

Or maybe I was never part of the plan.

I carve "HELP" into the shore,

The tide rewrites it, once, then twice.

The island has rules, silent and sure,

I learn them slowly, I don’t decide.

The island remains, I remain,

The sky sighs, the ocean waits.

Coconut sits, unmoved, unbothered,

I sit too. I wait too.
