Rage. Rage. I blink back my fiery tears. I will not allow this wave to take me under. The current is strong, but my resolve is stronger.
I am blinded. Droplets of the salty sea fly into my eyes. Bring salty tears to the brims of my lashes. I rage. Oh how I rage. Balance lost, I flail my arms in a seemingly futile effort to steady myself.
Another wave. I have yet to recover from the first. Yet here it is. Stronger, larger than the last. Again, nearly pulling me under. I gasp for air. Fight to surface. This is a test of my strength, my cunning my fortitude.
I must not fail. I will not fail.
Fight fight. Rage rage. Live. Live.
Survive.
