My toes sunk into the velvet sand below the water.
I heaved my body inch by inch slowly breaking free from the body of water that clung to my skin.
Finally the water had pulled back and I was left standing, trembling and exposed, the weight of my body parting the sand below my feet.
I collapsed on the shore having abandoned my strength.
The rough sand stinging my cheek, held me for a moment.
In that moment of peace, without warning, my body was swallowed by the rushing water and I was being drug back out to sea.
