She loved the beach.
The sun kissing every inch of her body.
The soft white sand powder coating her skin.
The contrast of the darkening water to the never ending sky.
And while the beach would always be there for her.
She knew she couldn't stay.
It wasn't who she was.
So she'd swim.
Pulling and straining against the incoming tide.
Giving it everything she had in her.
Until she had nothing left.
Exhausted , she stopped and turned back to face the shoreline.
Alone save for two options.
Sink or swim.
