Stranded on an island, and I'm all alone

I have to bring one thing and one thing for my own 

Some will say a phone or maybe even something to read

No not me, I want something I will need

Something to past the time that I would need everyday

A tool for success to help me in many ways

A machete can do many things like cut and kill

A tool to help build and prepare my next meal

I can cut things around me to build a shelter of my desire 

I can also cut things like wood to build a nice fire 

And I can use it to make weapons or use it for a weapon on its own

A machete is very important if I were stranded on my own.
