WRITING OBSTACLE
Using all five main senses, and any others you think are appropriate, describe a journey down into the depths of the sea.
Consider which narrative perspective you will use for this, particularly if there are non-human senses you could explore.
Hidden depths
The water is in my face i can’t breathe obviously right because im underwater the water is in my face im going down and can feel my chest contracting it hurts when i try to breathe because i can’t i don’t have my basic nesscity—oxygen ooo that hurts im gonna drown i think to myself well in already drowning but uhhh my ears are flooded and i feel so…worthless? I can’t do anything im oh it’s helpless yes that’s what i feel my fingers are swaying rapidly as i try to swim out but i can’t. The water feels so soft and comferting but it’s far from that. I try to see but at this point it’d be better to close my eyes because there’s nothing but blue abyss for miles and miles and that’s how i know im done for. I can’t hear anything i can’t see anything, i can’t feel anything i don’t have anything to hold onto, my nose is doing all the work trying to regulate my breathing and all i can taste is the salty ocean and water. Why am i in this situation is it really the end like i stated before i feel hopeless as i fall into the hidden depths of this ocean. How did i even end up in such a situation but i shouldn’t be thinking about that when my life is about to end. I should be reminiscing but let me tell you drowning is pain it truly hurts it’s not like being on fire or getting run over but it’s still a way to go out and it’s very insufferable. This is not a peaceful death even though it might look like it. Im in so much pain i genuinely can’t even consider reminiscing at this point
