I Am Home

Warmth consumes me. 
The feel of a cool breeze ignites my senses as it crawls over me. 
I can smell the sea salt in the air. 
My body gravitates towards that smell, like an addiction. 
Fiery, electrifying sand squishes between my toes, 
the gentle wind plays with my hair, 
and the sun gazes upon me as I walk toward this phenomenon. 
My eyes are entranced by the beauty ahead of me, and then I feel it. 
The rush of cool water wraps around my ankles, pulling me further into my fixation. 
A steady current guides me while my feet explore the mysteries below. 
Waves surround my figure, and I dance to their beat. 
My soul is gladly captured in the astonishment of the ocean. 
I am home.
