"My nostrils fill with the briny smell of the oceans water. I stare at the scene in front of me; the blue water, the azure sky all comfort me. As orange bands form on either side of the horizon, I think about all that has happened in my lifetimethe love I once had, the pain I had suffered, it all was wiped from thought as I stare into the vivid sunset.
