Suddenly the ground under me collapses and I fall into a pool of water. I thrash my arms around, fighting for air and fighting to get to the top, but the water is pulling me down, almost as if I'm a rock, destined to sink to the bottom and stay there. I finally stop struggling and give up, allowing the water to caress me. I slowly began to sink to the bottom. My back brushes against the warm sand below me. The sand wraps around me, keeping me warm. It feels just like daddy's arms just before I fell asleep. I close my eyes and let go, letting the sand caress me like a child. I feel my heart beat slow down as I slowly slip away from reality.
