the riptides poke at their flesh forcing their skins to open as it bleeds freely into the icy water it ****** their fingers and stings to the very core violently tearing the soft covers that protect their bones from shattering their teeth crushing onto each other at uncontrollable speed, biting onto their lips and tongues once in a while making their eyes tear up the murky water fills their lungs with each breath they take, their legs and arms flailing, trying to stay above but it's too strong it bites back and forces them underneath, suddenly there's no more thrashing, no more screaming just silence and the water stills... but no one comes back up

Riptides
the riptides poke at their flesh forcing their skins to open as it bleeds freely into the icy water it ****** their fingers and stings to the very core violently tearing the soft covers that protect their bones from shattering their teeth crushing onto each other at uncontrollable speed, biting onto their lips and tongues once in a while making their eyes tear up the murky water fills their lungs with each breath they take, their legs and arms flailing, trying to stay above but it's too strong it bites back and forces them underneath, suddenly there's no more thrashing, no more screaming just silence and the water stills... but no one comes back up
