Surfers Death

My heart was like a thousand drums beating a mile a minute.  The wind felt cool on my skin while it glistened in the sunlight.  The ocean was a roaring storm, as my body was in sync with my bored.  I maneuvered through and around the salty waves.  With the intention of winning.  Less then a second my world crashed.  It was too big, I slipped.  The current drug me across the ocean floor. I tried my best to hold my breath for as long as I could.  I felt my lungs filling up with water, and my heart going weak.  I heard screaming above, but the water was to dirty to see.  Soon I couldn't move.  My heart stopped, and I was gone.
