Imagine :
your at the beach only you , you walk through the sand and turn to the ocean staring off into the horizon.
you feel this pull towards the ocean so you start walking in;
3ft. Calm cool collected staring at the beautiful sunset
6ft your paddling slowly wading in the water staring at the sunset still.
10ft your getting closer to the sunset seeing its beauty.
14ft you think how your getting back.
17ft you realize you can’t see the shore anymore.
19ft you wanna go back but you can’t you don’t know which direction is which.
21ft you realize that the sunset is just there it is infinite.
23ft you cant see the floor and you surrounded by dark water.
25ft you turn on you back hopeless
25ft your floating staring at the sky.
25ft your stuck.
25ft you let that tear cascade down your face in realization of never getting back.
25ft and its over.

Dont know if its because its late, and i needed to be sleeping hours ago, but reading that was both intens and terrifying. Thank you for writing that
That is so right on. And the alone-ness, helpless to choose any direction and devoid of any hope.
Damn. Each day, every day.
Thank you just writing from the heart and using my mind to utilize those words.
