What The Water Gave Me

How about a story?          Once upon a time there was a girl who sat and stared longingly out at the water. This girl came from privilege and had two loving parents who only wanted the best for their daughter. Yet despite this, the girl was alone, for while her parents truly did love her, they were always far too busy to show it. The girl would try to keep their attention, and at times she would succeed, and she would be happy to spend time with them. However, most times she would fail, her attempts halted by a chorus of "I'm sorry pumpkin, but daddy is busy", "I'm sorry, mommy is out of town again", "I'm sorry, but I have to work late. Dinner is in the fridge." And so the girl would spend most of her days alone.          Thus the girl would go down to the ocean, and she would sit and stare out at the water. She would watch the tides move back and forth, back and forth. She'd listen to the gulls, and feel the ocean breeze on her skin.
