The Ocean Drowned My Thoughts

The sound came first — steady and endless, filling the room until my mind went still. This piece carries that moment when the ocean’s rhythm takes over, and thinking simply stops.

The surface recalls the look of wet stones after the tide pulls away — glistening, heavy with salt and silence. In that space, there’s a sense of giving in to something larger, letting the noise and weight of life fade until all that’s left is presence.
