There are children stretched out across yards and yards of sharp and jagged rocks.
They simultaneously raise their chests in a sigh,
Forcing their skin to stretch more and more across the stones.
Their mouths barely move.
Their eyes are sealed shut.
A tide washes in,
Licking their wounds and slowly cleansing them with salts of the sea.
They sigh again.
A sigh of relief.
This is the ocean
