Just Looking

A Drabble

I am standing on a sandbank in the middle of some ocean, but the water is covering my feet. The tides come and go, so sometimes I am on dry sand and sometimes I am shin-deep in ocean water.

The water is warm, so I don't mind, and while I am here, I look and scan the horizon and see nothing but water. No ships and no birds, but birds, but it makes me feel so incredibly calm.

I could stand here forever, there is no pressure, just a feeling of absolute calm, and that is all I need now.
