LOTF#10 Ralph

We killed Simon, the only one who I could depend on is dead. We have all gone barmy. This beast is making my life here miserable. How are we supposed to get things done if everyone is freaking out over a beast? I would love for just one night to be able to have a good sleep. I will do anything to just survive until someone comes to save us.
Piggy has brains. I take what he has as illumination, not criticism. He is now my right hand, I have come dependent on him. I hope he can stay alive long enough to be rescued also. He was the first I met on this island, I want him to be with me when we are rescued.
I want tonight to be purged of any fear. I want this to just end. I still have a sliver of hope that we will be rescued, but most of us have become animals, like Jack.
