The Waves

Part I

He said to grab his hand and begged her to trust him. She said, "Darling I want to, but what do you offer?"

He says, "Don't mind that, just wait for the adventure." She grabs his hand and they walk through the water. As the waves come crashing all around her, she screams, "Darling, save me" and goes more under.

He said, "Silly girl, this is part of your adventure. Love takes a toll and nothing lasts forever. It was fun while it lasted but I'm sadistic. I'm no good for anyone, yet everyone is additive. Don't be fooled. I loved you at one time."

She replied, "So did I but 'loved' is past tense." She let go of him and her heartbreak was so intense. She got lost in the waves and couldn't feel a thing. His image is fading and her memory is blurring.

She never wanted to go on an adventure, just wanted a sense of closure. Over the years the waves have built her not to feel, but to fear and let the fear consume her.

You see at first she was scared, scared of the waves, but the waves became all she has left to save. Save for the lost souls who come to her for guidance, step into the water and let her control your conscious.
