A Calm World
The sun beat down on her face in harsh rays
The wind blew around her
She could smell the salt from the water
The concrete scratched at her feet
She felt the breeze with her fingers
She could only see red, the sun through her eyelids
The bottom of her dress caressed her thighs
She had saved her hair from whipping around
The elastic was just a little too tight
Some pieces had loosened and were flying around anyway
The waves were calming
In and out, in and out
Constant
Which is what she needed in her life
But, she felt calm
Her aura was clean, albeit slightly salty and burnt
But, she was glad
She had escaped to this world, though still the same world
A calm world
Where the only bad thing was salt in your eyes
