[align=center][div style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12px; width: 310px; text-align: justify; line-height:120%"]Ever tumultuous those dark unfathomable depths, perpetual cycle, advance and retreat. Familiar had it grown in a time that seemed so meagre upon reflection. Different this, beneath the blended hues tracing the final moments of twilight taken that familiarity. Time the possible culprit, further experiences loosening the moments from his memories, or a wish to discard, guilt and shame even entangled in it. No longer could he run from it, pretend the actions of a child were correct.
They had never been, a pursuit meant only to temper his own selfish desire. Wished to prove himself, be more than what was expected of him, grow beyond the comments others made.
Downward vision trailed, the transition from sand to tide focal point. About rather sodden paw it arose in a quiet wash, fine the residue left behind, brief yet replacement always there before the last disappeared. Fond the smile curling his lips, sweet the moments recalled, as poorly constructed they were, noticeable the filler supplied as time laid waste to each. Hailkit within the surf, the purpose lost now, yet not the thrill of being to climb atop, elevated for a moment. The decidedly strange fish that Rhine had been proud in showing off. The terror produced from witnessing Rhine caught in the eye of a vortex of unnatural creation. Too numerous his escapades across the beach, taken to mimicry as fished the shallow tide.
He wishes to hold them, those suspended moments, but they fall away, as does his smile. Upward forced sage hued vision, known activity slowed to a point undetected may he be for a time. The want is there, however, beneath the shame, a bubbling mess — desire and heady joy, inhibitions so easily shed if allowed. Anchored is he here, however, where the tide and the sand met, chewing on his lip as the contending notions wage war.
No warning, nothing to prevail, only the sudden momentum. Something within his mind screamed to turn back, escape any due punishment, yet small that portion, drowned beneath everything else. Soon enough he began to slow, chest burning, legs aching, registered at last how tears gathered and fell in a silent cascade. He had missed the beach a great deal, the people within in equal measure, more than he cared to admit truthfully. Too much caught between teeth, held there as he waited, the wish to speak pushed down beneath every thought crowding his mind.
