I got lost at sea.
Again.
The water felt so warm.
I felt it embrace every exposed surface of my skin and it pulled me in.
It was so calm.
The water didn’t even splash, there were just endless ripples that carried into eternity.
The sun kept whispering my name in the horizon as it set and I just floated towards it.
The shore, the people, the sand became smaller and smaller.
My fears, my anxiety , my worries became smaller.
I fell asleep after a while.
I woke up staring at endless stars.
Diamonds in the black abyss.
A moonless night.
I decided to stay here for a while.
