    The air is thick and heavy even away from the shoreline. As she steps outside her hair becomes a frizzy fuzz ball. Smells of salt wafts up so strong it burns her nose hairs. Taking a breath in she lets the humid air fill her lungs. She walks across the scorching sand until the chilly water brings her bare feet some relief. Sand kisses in between her toes‚ sliding away only after she lifts her foot to take another step. Just above the sand‚ the water twirls it in a hypnotic dance overtop her perfectly

    Chills running up my spine‚ rapid foggy breathes expelling in front of me like a car on a cold morning. The clock running down second by second with green illumination‚ it said we only played 4 periods of hockey‚ but truly we played 6 with triple overtime. I feel exhausted and wonder how much more I can give without collapsing. I grab my water bottle and begin to drink‚ and the distinct taste of iron from the water in the iron range rolls down my throat. Suddenly one of our players starts with full

    Blood poured out of the wound in my side‚ and I gripped it as tears sprung to my eyes. I could feel every little nerve in my body slowly becoming numb as my body began to shut down. My heart began to beat slower‚ and my eyes grew heavy. I could barely feel my legs‚ but I continued to crawl away from the battlefield. The tears in my eyes began to spill‚ and I whimpered out loud‚ choking on the air that I breathed. I collapsed in to a pile of leaves near the base of a large oak tree‚ desperate for

    One hour‚ 60 minutes or 3600 seconds was all it took. All it took for reality to become meaningless. As I lay here‚ I can taste blood in my mouth: hot‚ wet and metallic. I can feel the forever expanding pool or crimson blood cascading from my partially severed body. My nostrils are filled with the smell of gnarled fabric and the acrid scent of roasting rubber. Silence. It drowns me‚ it pulls and tugs and screams a thousand words never to be heard. Nothingness. 3600 seconds earlier. In an infinite

    I was breathing heavily‚seeing dark figures sprinting towards me out of the corner of my eye.The night air was frigid‚making my skin a pale lifeless color.Heavy footsteps hit the cold pavement as I ran for dear life taking deep breaths‚my heart beating out of my chest. “Get over here runt!”‚one of the taller ones of the gang yelled grabbing out for the back of my leather jacket.Before he could grasp the black leather I dodged his strong hand turning into an alleyway.As dark and gloomy as it was

    The Trenches – WW1 I’m encapsulated in the unending nightmare of fear. The rain continues to bore on infinitely‚ pounding on the grubby ground and turning it into vast lakes of murky water. The miserable‚ grey clouds covered the sky‚ only letting a few rays of sun slip through. The monotonous sound of raindrops beating on the helmets of the soldiers thundered down like bullets. Everything was miserable‚ grey‚ and lacklustre. The thick layer of mud squelched beneath my feet as I struggled to walk

    A rush of crisp morning air-filled my lungs as I inhaled. Roaring water attacking the banks of the river captivated my eyes. 8 o’clock‚ the perfect time to be kayaking because the water still resembled glass displaying white sand littered with seashells and the natural soothing breeze relaxes my unusually tense body. Even the scenery is perfect at this time because the sun gives the colored tear shaped leaves a warm glow. Everything about kayaking is perfect‚ except for one thing…spiders. The
