The crashing of waves against the shore is the only sound I can hear.
The blazing sun is now a giant orange orb sinking beneath the ocean.
The sky is dark the clouds, heavy.
The sudden rumbling of thunder and flashes of lightning tells me that rain is immenient.
What's left of the bustling beach is now almost empty.
Even the few people around are all scuttling off in search of shelter.
All that's left is the beach and a lone self, sitting on the soft, fine sand staring into the horizon.
The light ocean breeze against my face stinging my eyes.
Tears rolled down my face.
However I doubt it's only because of the wind.
But I cannot deny the wind triggered what I was trying to hold back for a long time.
It is as though heaven is feeling the same way as I am, as tiny droplets of rain pattered across my face and everywhere else.
I hugged my legs closer and buried my face in them.
My heart felt as though a weight of a thousand tonnes had crushed it.
The feeling of pain overcame all my other emotions as tears streamed down my face.
I stand up and run towards the rippling waves, wading till the water reaches my knees.
I open my mouth to release the pain I'm feeling inside.
Shouting and screaming about nothing in particular, on the verge of hysteria.
Waves of sadness replaced my pain as I staggered backwards due to the waves rushing to shore.
