CORA PHILLIPS
I was drowning. My lungs refused to work. I kicked hard, but that only pulled me down further. My hands flailed around in an attempt to call someone. To get the attention of someone. Someone should save me please. Something wet wrapped around my right ankle, dragging me deeper in the dark waters. I opened my mouth to scream but only ended up gulping gallons of salt water.
My lungs screamed. They wanted air. They needed air. They burned. My eyes burned even more, the salt water burned my irises, i could almost smell burning flesh. It was alarming.
I take a leap of faith to check what it is that was wrapped around my ankle, i find darkness. Darkness that was enchanting. Darkness that looked.. welcoming.
So I stop resisting. I let it take me instead. My hands stop flaili
